@Alan Phipps: Thank you for your kindness and generosity toward your elderly neighbor. You restore my faith in humanity.
What is wrong with people? It's not like they've parked there for a giggle, is it! Even worse if she could actually get past ok... Some people...Alan Phipps wrote: ↑Sun, 14. Mar 21, 16:23While they were so occupied, a fit and healthy lady pedestrian interrupted them and insisted that they move their police car so that she could use the pavement unimpeded (it was possible to get past the car on foot without going into the road or hedge). The police basically refused as they told her that they were on an essential task.
The lady then turned to me and started giving me her very frustrated point of view on the matter. I forestalled her and advised that if she were that concerned about it, that she call the police. If looks could kill .... There was later a lot of rolling of eyes from the two police but, to their credit, no disparaging remarks about the lady.
Reminds me of the morons who complained about an ambulance blocking their driveway; doesn't matter they were responding to a call!
