I walk my dogs early(ish) in the morning along the pathway that runs from Coate, round the back of Bath Road and down to, and past, Mannington.

At that time there a number of cyclists, joggers and walkers. I say 'Good Morning' or some such to each and every one.

And less than half the miserable bastards can be arsed to return the greeting.

if you're running its acceptable just to give a sympathetic nod, but otherwise i'd always return a greeting

Maybe you need to speak up a bit, just try "morning twat" you'll soon know if they've heard you  Smiley

Audrey has probably got neck tattoos and a devil dog...I'd be giving him a wide berth.

I did, indeed, call after a cyclist this morning with 'Miserable Cunt'.

It's a shared path. Unfortunately not a lot of dog walkers understand that, let their dogs roam off the lead and then 'tut' quite audibly when cyclists have to skid to avoid said dog.

Audrey, were you the fishing wire culprit? http://www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/news/10654314.Trip_wire_booby_trap_is_death_risk/

Although shared, the bit around OT on the old railway, is designated as a cycle track, so it should be incumbent on dog people to keep their mutts under control...unfortunately this common courtesy seems to be increasingly beyond many.

As of Monday I'll be an illegal immigrant in Bosnia. I'm coming back to England in 13 days, so 13 days to not get deported.

Being a freeloading chancer does tend to catch up with you. Welcome to the real world.

What kind of visa are you on?

My understanding was a student visa last the entirety of the academic year you're out there?
