Rubbish :(

It is raining, and in about half an hour I have to walk to town, get a bus to Freeport, and then walk another mile(ish) to work. It is 2 miles from my house to town, and I have to walk because I am poor and I have a total of 15p in my purse.

Who wants to come give me a lift :(? Anyone? No?

Poo :(

    I would consider it if it wasn't for the fact that the cab drivers in Braintree are scary bastards :|.

    All is saved, though. Have got a lift from my stepdad :D. Which also means I get another hour and a quarter (ish) before I have to leave. Yay!

    A mile from Freeport to McDonalds? Franki, you are such a lier! :p It's like, 5-10 minutes depending on how fast you walk!

    However, yeah, your house is Infinity from town.

    Obviously you walk fast :grump:. Takes me 10-15 minutes, which is how long it takes me to (get this) WALK A MILE.

    Stace - I have cycled to work before, however the reason I didn't want to walk was 'cause it was raining. I would have happily walked otherwise, god knows I need the exercise.

    I can walk a mile in about the same time because its 6 miles to town (when I'm at home) and I can walk it in 90 minutes. I think its cuz we have long legs :D

    However, my friend who is 5'11" says I walk too quickly yet my legs are shorter than hers :confused:

    My friends call me a 'power walker'

    I get annoyed when people walk slowly, because I physically cannot do it. Although annoyingly, I can't walk uberfast either. So I can never keep up with Rich 'cause he's like SPEEDWALKSPEEDWALK.

    The annoying thing about my house > town is that it is not only two miles, it is two miles UPHILL. It suckssssssssss. :(

    Same here. I physically can't do it.

    FINALLY, someone who understands.

    My friends always think I'm walking off in a grump :(

    Aye. They're like "why are you walking so fast?" and it's like NO, I'm NOT walking fast, YOU are walking SLOWLY.

    It always bugs me when I can't get past slow walking people as well, I always end up going left and right and left and right until I can find a space to get past them before I stand on the backs of their feet.

    I hate this as well. And the fact that there are some people who walk right in the middle of the pavement so I have to walk on the road to get past them. Some old man did this earlier and it was raining.:grump:

    Slow walking people are pretty much as annoying as those old farts who block the entire isle in tesco.

    I DON'T WANT TO STAND HERE FOREVER. I have what I want, do let me fucking past to the till before I smash a pot of marmite over your fucking head.

    Don't put your studid cunting trolley across the whole ilse. And if you take 15 items to the ten items or less checkout, I WILL kill you.

    Let's start an armed group dedicated to culling these people.

    It'd make shopping at least 50% less stressful. The greater good and all.
