YELL COUNTER

 The more observant reader will have noticed the addition of a new feature to the right of this blog. This is the Yell Counter.


Keep an eye on this as, depending on events, it will be updated daily.

This morning I walked with The Old Girl to her place of work (actually she made me do this) and back to get my daily walk kms in - 4km this morning. It's a beautiful day and we walked along the wharf walk to Customhouse Quay and Whitmore Street where her office is located.

This was before 8am and road and pedestrian traffic was light making for a very pleasant walk. All too often though our way was interrupted by some dickhead scooter and cycle riders who rode far too fast amongst the walkers. Why would they do this instead of riding on the road? Because they are c***s I guess. I had to three times yell at them to "slow the bloody fuck down there are people walking here" etc. but they ignored me.


This prompted me to create the yell counter. No need to thank me.

I'll head out again later and maybe take the ferry to Days Bay. Richard no doubt would call this Day's Bay and Robert, Daze Bay.

Chow!

But you could just make up any number of yells. I think we need actual video.

The Yell Counter is pretty quiet.

No yelling today.
I had a very pleasant walk with Lynn to her work.
We walked down Lambton Quay and there were no rude cyclists, skateboarders or scooterers on the footpath. I then walked through Parliament grounds to Hobson Street which was nice. I'm in a good mood.
