Ugh... That is one excellent bus driver. I lost track of how many times I got similar treatment from idiots on that stretch of road back in the early 90s. (Knee damage limitation was my eventual reason for giving up cycling rather than idiots.)

Oh dear. He can come and work with me for some resilience training... though since I moved into Maths full time I have not had much thrown at me other than angst.

We have had a liturgical mash-up and I am going out for pizza to recover. (Should add it's probably only me who needs to recover as I know why we do what we currently do.)

Thank you! I mean, I can and have taught basic knitting to those who want to learn, but it would be soo much better for all concerned if I remain with the Maths work I currently do... (Not that everyone has Strong Opinions about what we should be teaching there either.)

This was more rude than confused. And not helpful when delaying me getting to my train by giving me a sharp scolding for trying to use an off peak ticket early.. then only further delay with the "I have diabetes-I can't see properly." explanation rather than apologise. Which did not help either.

Totally... I was equally irritated by the over bright headlights blinding drivers stories ignoring the effect they have on pedestrians' eyes.

I am glad I wasn't the only one to feel that.... I have also had my first driver of the seasonyell "Oi, that's too bright!" For my fully reflective jacket and hat. At a zebra crossing they did not wish to stop at.
