It seems to be a regular thing around here, there'll be some silly sod running on the left with headphones on. Even more annoying, today I saw someone running on the road when the pavement was wide enough to drive in.

Why, when they have mechanical diggers to carry all the crap and dispose of it properly. Instead they just chuck a few inches of top soil over it and then lay turf on top😡 lazy and couldn’t give a toss attitude .

Didn't take kindly to being called a prick, and tried to threaten saying the call was being recorded. People like that need something deeply unpleasant to happen to them.
