london1967and today it was the first time - and probably the last - that someone shouted at me 'F***ing Nazi' repeatedly!
I simply objected to a 'gentleman' aggressively trying to stop me (was he a nutter? did he want money?) by pushing his bike into my legs.
Granted, I could have just said 'Leave me alone, please' instead of barking 'Just f*** off!' but I saw red.
When we came home from our holiday 10 days ago, I was telling Adrian how I don't feel relaxed in London any more but always slightly on edge.
Said that, bad behaviour seems to be universal. One evening in SItges 4 American teenagers by the church saw Ricardo walking past and said 'One euro for the cripple'. They are lucky I didn't hear them as I was walking ahead, or they would have got a piece of my mind.
Maybe I am getting less tolerant of fools, or you could just blame it on my Mediterranean temper (although I'd like to add that I first glimpsed at the sea when I was 15 y.o.)

There wasn't even 3 billion when I was born!
This planet-according to scientists-is only big enough to handle 3 billion comfortably.
BIG HUGS
Sorry you have to endure such bullshit.

Though you'd need to wait for this one to get mobile before you lob it onto his back.
