12 pics: Bikes from ICC

Tough one this. On the one hand we all want kids to get to and from school safely, but on the other hand pedestrians have a right to be safe too.

Perhaps a bit of courtesy all round is what is required!

"Hi i decided to ask you something.
For long time i can see a lot if bikers on path. Im partly deaf person. Ive been scared hundrets of time. Here im sending you just few pic with teenage rushing to ICC. It increased from time when new houses are build and they have to go bit longer.
But often adult people are driving on path too. Why ? Why if code is clear....bikers must to use road or marked roads for bikers, not path!!!! Are they using because feel unsafe on roads? Maybe i start driving my car on path because i feel other drivers can be drunk?
Looking at last accident in london where was biker and pedestroan involved and pedestrian was killed, how long we will accept it??? I cant hear bikers coming from behind me! They wearing helmets to protect themself but didnt care about pedestrians???? They can easily injure me. What police about it? Why i pay penalty if break road code and bikers not???

Two pics: Bad manners at the hospital

"Hello, can you please post with a photo of this number plate. The driver of the van damaged a young woman's car in the hospital whilst she was waiting for a space. Then verbally abused her for a further 5 minutes whilst she was waiting for my car parking space. He blocked the whole road, and blocked ambulances from getting in and out. An old, inconsiderate man. You can see his finger marks on the wing mirror."



Southgate West double parker

Probably completely oblivious. I know which car my money is on!

"Could you please put out a thank you to whoever parked there car last as you can't fit another car past! At Tesco Southgate"

Cash machine etiquette explained

"Good people of Crawley, may I please remind you that the queues for the ATMs at Tesco Hazelwick start where the green arrows are. NOT there the red cross is. Waiting there and staring into the shop makes it look like you're waiting for someone to come out.
So to the horrible woman with purple braids and a toddler in a red buggy, who decided she would SPRINT to get to the ATM before me yesterday morning . . . it was YOU that jumped the queue my love, not me. I didn't say anything because I guess I was a little in 'shock' at your blatant rudeness, but trust me, I will not allow you to do that to me a second time. Nobody likes a queue jumper (that's you)! Rant over"

Afternoon burn up!

"Is it really socially acceptable to have a bonfire at 1:30 on a Saturday afternoon in the middle of a housing estate. Me me me! This is on the path by the water gardens and that's in his front garden"



Dealing with uninvited visitors

Every home needs this sign!

"Spotted in Poynings Road"





Twenty Green bottles, laying in the leaves

Certainly doesn't look like random litter.

"Who should I report this to?
For all I know it could be ammunition for a fight

In the Park off Pondwood Road"

3 pics - another Tilgate swan attack by a dog


This isn't very pleasant, but we make no apologies for showing what happens when irresponsible people own dogs.
Cygnet attacked by dog at Tilgate Park this morning (Saturday) 🙁

Please share any information that you may have.


 





2 pics. Thanks for parking on top of me

Thanks to the prat that parked on top of my car today





3 pics of the Harvester on fire

We are a bit late with this one as it happened two weeks ago, but we'll still share the pics




Who was the primary arsehole?

"Which arsehole came first? I saw this at Southgate doctors and I had to go and park on Brighton Road which is fine cos I'm able bodied but I saw an old couple also have to go there and they were struggling with the walk. All because these two are selfish arseholes"


Thats a bit close!

Thats a bit close...

"People wonder why cars get smashed up! came out this morning to find this. Nothing behind the Astra."


7 pics - vandalised land

We have leased land from the council to walk our dogs, and when we went there this morning, we found a lot of damage to the area. 

Trees have been cut down and now lay across the road to where we park. In addition to this they have used a chainsaw to cut down telegraph pole, and poles that carry electric. 

The cable are now damaged and live wires are sprawled all across the road. This has not only interfered with our daily walks, but more importantly put the public that walk on the land and the dogs at risk of electrocution. 

I want anybody that knows anything to contact the Police or Council. This is costing a lot of money, time and effort to sort out.

Please find the pics below of the damage, these shit heads have caused...
