You know what really grinds my gears?

[downgirl]

When you are out powerwalking and people driving past stare at you...ok I know I probably look like an eejit but it's not nice to stare!!!

Power walkers grind my gears a little.

They always look angry. There is no difference in the facial expression or the walk of a woman when she is angry than in a perfectly calm woman power walking. It' hard to tell when a power walker is approaching whether she will burst ye or greet ye with a grunt.
Many of them tend to let a grunt out of them when they walk past ye.
Ye just feel like you'd had better not obstruct a power walker or you're in for it.  
It's a little intimidating.

No offence Downgirl

Haha no I am nice when I'm out walking, I say hi to people I pass even though they don't always say hi back!!  As for the facial expression I try to keep mine sort of half normal because you never know what sexy Ardglass fellas would drive past you!!!

Did she catch you parking in one of the reserved powerwalker spots?

No it was a woman who hit her hand/fist of it and cracked the mirror! 
I've no idea how she managed it or how her hand wasn't broke!

She's a neighbour of mine at home, we still laugh about it - well I do, she gets embarassed. 

[pintsofguinness]

Maybe she just looked in it.

Harsh.

[downgirl]

Oooh hardstation!!!  haha!!

Jeepers she must have been holding her fists fairly tight...how embarrassing glad it wasnt me!

It's a message from God - you shouldn't be drinking stout from a can. You wouldn't try to suck your porridge through a straw.

[ONeill]

Jays you're a fussy oul tart Hardy. Er indoors must have it tough.

[Hardy]

She would if she ever offered me tinned stout.
