my car got stuck last weekend, as i left it over night as i went out
so in the morning when i went to collect it, the snow had frozen over, another lady was also having problems getting out, a nice gentleman pointed out that sand was avaible across the road
so i got myself a bucket, filled it with sand to start to make a track for my car and this ladys car to get out
untill this grumpy old git shouted at me
“that sand is’nt for your car, that sand is for the pavement, put it back at once”
i got a bit pished of by this remark, so i stated, i pay my council tax, this road is not gritted, if the council are not prepared to grit it, then i shall do it myself with the sand that is there for me to use
he got very funny and thrented to call some man, who ever it was, i’m not sure how he would stop me using the sand
so i told him i hope he slips and breaks his neck :)
anyway my point being, its due to old fashioned oldie people to why this country is such a shyte hole, you are not allowed to help yourself, you are asked to put yourself out for others all the time
if the man said to me, would you gladly clear the path from the old peoples home too
i would have happily have done that, but peoples attitudes and there way of words really put me off wanting to help them
