Scary day

[tiggerblue10]

I had a bit of a scary day today. I went out for lunch and as I was walking towards the shopping centre 3 young school girls were walking in the same direction in front of me. One of the girls was being extremely loud and deliberately walking into other people then shouting "do you mind" at them even though she was the one doing it. She must have done this to at least 10 people. One person dared to challenge her and she absolutely flew at them!

What on earth are we breeding?

I've had some scary moment but most tended to turn out wierdly ok!

Was sitting outside a takeaway waiting for my food in a pretty rough area of Leeds and these lads came and sat either side of me. Was cacking myself then one of them asked if they could sit with me as they'd chucked a rock at a guy's car windscreen and were worried he was after them so wanted to me look after them!!!

I used to live by a park entrance and loads of kids used to congregate right on the gate to where I lived and I'd have to walk right through the crowd of them to get in which they always seemed to find really funny as they all towered over me.

They'd yell things some nights about being in the garden and one night were throwing rocks at the window. Peeped through the curtains at one point and it's only double glazing which stopped the rock which smashed the window right by my face causing serious damage.

A garden picnic also got raided by local kids to the point that we had to hide inside and get the police out.

When I lived in Leeds some of the gangs of kids used to carry things like baseball bats and would sit on the wall behind the bus stop and ride up right next to you as if they were going for your bag. Saw some shoooting fireworks at cars on a blind bend once as well!

I hate to imagine when I have kids :(

I get it from my dad. He was walking down the street late at nigh once and there was this massive fella, real nasty looking sort apparently walking towards him and my dad was cacking it. Dad kept looking at him and this guy kept staring at my dad sizing him up (he's not a big fella to look at) and making my dad real nervous. At the last minute, dad thought 'fook this' and crossed the road to avoid him as he was sure he was gonna lump him.

The fella crossed the road at the same time with his head down and they both exchanged a giggle and a knowing glance... Turns out the big chap thought my dad was the dubious looking fella!

If she was my daughter and I found out what she had been doing I'd kick her into next week.

Another bizarre one was in Leeds again, first time I went and being a country girl was more daunting.

Was with a friend trying to find our hotel and ended up near the ringroad somewhere getting a bit panicky.

These girls were walking some way ahead of us and talking. Heard them say Shrewsbury (pronounced Shroesbury) so I muttered Shrewsbury (pronounced Shrewsbury) and I saw her halt and cacked it I was gonna get lamped.

She carried on then stopped again, and came over to me, I'm thinking I'm for it and she recognised me from junior school, how random is that!!! I knew of her younger sister but would never have recognised her!

Still freaks me out seeing as they were some way in front of us and it was really dark so no idea how she made the connection!!!

Lol China!

I know what you mean about the firework thing Jenna. Some kids were letting off fireworks sideways on my road. One missed me by a couple of meters. Called the police when I got home but they'd disappeared by then.

It's my dads story not mine but I thought it was pretty funny when he told it me. Mind you, he tells it better than I do!

Your version sounded pretty funny CD.
