Aren`t people funny!

I visited the cash machine outside the local supermarket and managed to get a parking space right across the pavement from it! and so with my Granddaughter firmly sat in her travel seat in the back I was able to nip across and draw money out without being more than five feet away, from my grandaughter! as I pulled into the space (backwards) I noticed that the person next in the queue had laid a bycycle down in the rear of the parking space and so I carefull parked the car in between his bike and well clear of the car in front! as I was getting back into the car a guy waiting to get into the parking space that was now available (as the previous person had driven of) in front of me got out of his car and shouted to me "excuse me but you are taking up two parking spaces" (I was two feet over the line at the front because of the bike which also wasn`t there now, so whats a guy to do!!!!!!! Do I get out of my car and drag him back out of his car and "lamp" him? do I politely say oh dear your right! or what? I chose the second option as I`m too old for the first one, unless serioiusly provoked. I got into my car and pulled back into the space so that he could park in front of me.

I have to say at this juncture, that there were six free parking spaces in front of us so I guess he was just being "Bloody" minded, so perhaps option 1 was in order? but hey ho! I didn`t take it, anyway I didn`t want my grandaughter age two and a half to see what a brute I can be :o(( after he parked, I sat and waited for him to get off the phone which took a couple of minutes and as he was putting the phone down, I pulled out and stopped opposite his drivers door for a couple of seconds while a couple who I thought were leaving their car on the opposite side of the single lane road, really to just piss him off that he couldn`t now get out of his car (how some old bastards, Me, enjoy themselves eh? )

The couple now didnt look as if they were going anywhere or take any notice of my actions, ( they were standing with the passenger door open and chatting) so before I moved forward and in case they suddenly turned and made a move across my path (bearing in mind the road is tight inbetween the cars parked either side) I gave a very short peep, and with a polite hand gesture, offered them the opportinity to cross in front of me, if they wanted to do so and slowly moved forward (they now knew my intention, so I felt safe to move forward! as I got level with them the guy 40 ish, with his shaved head, punches on my drivers door window and asks me "whats your "fcking" problem" once again I think that number one was probably the right option but no, I just waved and smiled which incited a further tirade from Mr "past it"! I looked back in the mirror as I moved off to see the guy, who had told me I was parked in two spaces ( who could now get out of his car :o)) ) walking up to Mr "past it". I can lipread (all be it badly) over the years as deafness has crept up on me, its been necesary I won`t say exactly what he was saying to Mr past it but it started off something like "If I was a vicar I`d marry his parents" Ha ha ha what a great day I`ve had so far, I wonder what more is in store for me.

I do hate not replying properly to such comments and threats but its probably for the best as an explanation is rarely ever listened to and "major injury" seems to be the only thing that works in this sort of situation? I guess that Mr "past it" was trying to impress his lady companion anyway, so I wouldn`t want to spoil his day now would I (Maybe) Gosh I`m a nice guy today aren`t I?
