I was running fractionally late to work this morning, going down the hill, in the countryside, following a Prius. You know an ecological car thing.
And then they throw ? a white cardboard box out of the window into the countryside.
Oh dear, my blood starts boiling. They're driving at 45mph, not an issue in itself. So I overtake, wifes taken the kids to the beach in my car and I'm driving a 25 year old mk1 clio, a mile later I get to work pull over, engine still running, jump out the car (Parisian number plates), the car slowly comes over the speed bumps outside work, I jump out in front of the car. Blood still boiling.
Slams it's brakes on. Family looking petrified, they drop the window, I kick off about throwing rubbish into the 'nature' in french. They thought I was cross as they were driving slowly. I explain we don't throw rubbish out of cars.
They deny everything, wasn't them, I must be halucinating.
Rant over.
