Wine Legs Mar 2014 9:57am, 10 Mar 2014 3,547 posts	Quote Pin Wine Legs Cycle lanes that vehicles are able to park in. What's the point of a dedicated cycle lane if it can be parked in? Also: Pedestrians who walk in or cross dedicated cycle lanes on footpaths without looking for 'traffic'. These lanes are usually VERY clearly marked, so it's not like they could have missed that it was a cycle lane.

This has, going inland from the sea: a prom, a wall, then a double cycle lane, then car parking bays, then the road. It's a fecking nightmare to cycle along the cycle path as a) pedestrians wander along it b) pedestrians walk straight across it to their parked cars c) cars routinely attempt to kill you

The latest annoyance is that they have moved their massive trampoline next to the fence so now they can see into my garden and kitchen. I intend to ask them to move it back but am not expecting a positive response. If that is the case they might find a regular supply of cat poo mysteriously appearing on the stupid thing
