The Old are Angry
|
Raison d'être |
I was out gathering sloes for my Sloe and Apple Jelly, and this kid on a bike came charging down the narrow lane. I stopped and stood on one side to let her pass. Instead, she stopped in front of me, blocking the way. Angrily, I said, "Either get on or get out the way". Then her mother came along, with another two kids on bikes, behaving like idiots, all over the place. I reflected that these are probably by-products of the recession - people who usually go to 'Theme Parks' or those indoor play areas, and can no longer afford it, so think that the countryside is one big free theme park . . . and later, I wondered why I get angry so easily nowadays . . . | |
