Not a Nice Surprise

Have you ever been in a situation where you're in a hurry home, traffic is getting heavy and whats usually the quickest way home, isn't. It happened to me, what do I do, thinking like a GPS I thought next left, left again and first right will miss the lights and be back on schedule. Turning left was fine but as I turned right into the one way street. (Do you know the TV show Family Fortunes when the participants get it wrong a big X appears with this awful sound, I heard it the moment I turned right) There he was bottom of the street just opening his hatchback then he got back into his car, a one way street, cycle path to left cars parked on right. This stacks of brains decided in the middle of peak time to pick up his women folk who had been shopping, and you know what women are like loading their shopping into a car. I had enough time to pull up behind him, hunt for my camera and take this picture. In the mean time the traffic behind me had tailed back to the end of the street and the shopping was still not put away, I did hear the odd horn behind me, but I was happy enough, I'd a photo for my blog, I think blogging is helping me to manage my road rage, and anyway the lady's smiled and waved as they closed the hatchback. Sure nothing to worry about you were just holding up traffic.
