Argument in a car park

Hmm. . .I think it would have been reasonable under the circumstances to have hit him to release your finger. . .an open handed strike to the side of his jaw or step in and grab his crotch with your free hand. . .turn sideways and use opposite shoulder to release. . .sweep supporting leg and move back sideways as he falls. . . call police and report assault. . . have finger checked by medic.

I would have thought even a strike to the face would be reasonable in law under the circumstances - just make sure it's on target (nose or side of jaw, even temple if you think you can be accurate) and hard enough to stun.

Easy to comment after the event - I apologise - just sounds like a guy that needed a response. . .next time try not to point, use an open handed jesture at shoulder height - less aggressive and easier to turn into defense or offense. . .

Time to shut up - here endeth my annoyance at such lousy behaviour - totally unnecessary - tough luck coming upon a guy like this. . . :thumbsdown:

Now I've got that out my system. :x

Back to driving! :)

Sorry samax!

:driving: :thumbsup:
 
I used this forum to vent, so let it out Paul! Pop to the a Docs and chat to the police. A small payout would be extremely useful as I just lost my job :( got home and reversed into a brick wall and scratched my wheel arches and bumper. Bad times. Bad day all round :(
 
My Gran used to say that bad things happen in threes, so I reckon things can only get better now :thumbsup:

As above really, tell the police, get it checked out. That is just the weirdest response from the guy, and totally not on - mouths are horrible, disgustingly bacteria infested places and a human bite can get seriously nasty if it breaks the skin. Crazy f*cker wouldn't have known what hit him if he did that to me - I think Mrs B would have gotten a smack in before I did rather than trying to get between us. She's a bit more mental than me...
 
Go for it samax - you didn't start today wanting to be injured and caused distress - sounds like you've got enough to deal with - hope you get something out of it.

Remember - it tells you more about them than it does about you - and hang on in there - something generally comes up if you stay positive.

Annoying about the parking though! You have my sympathies - ok to be annoyed just don't let it get you down - things like that can be fixed - there's a lot that can't!

And you're still a Zed owner! Which we all know is a brilliant thing to be!

:driving: :thumbsup:
 
Reversed into him then reversed into my own driveway wall...maybe I should forward park for the next few days for safety lol :headbang:
 
Okay, I am going to make you feel better. Well, maybe not better, but certainly in good company.... I am also unemployed at present - by choice, but it's not quite gone to plan and Christmas is pretty close to being cancelled... So I really didn't need to drive in to my garage door again last week - again - destroying the door and costing me £550 through sheer incompetence. To top it all my wife has stopped having sex with me and I can't fig... Oh. Wait a minute :headbang:

:lol: :cry:

You will be fine, things have a way of working out - as an awesome chap on here said to me recently :thumbsup:
 
Wife's uncle and auntie were crossing the road at a shopping centre nearby and some woman started hitting the horn as they crossed the road. They are in their late 60's early 70's. Uncle went to ask what the problem was and she bit into his arm quite badly.

Straight to hospital for shots and checkup, god knows what these animals are carrying.

I think you were very restrained in the circumstances. :thumbsup:
 
Whilst pointing saying 'your parking is worse (in colourful language)' and a few other things, it was about 12" away from his face. He didn't just peck because it was right there, he actually had to dive for it!

I know you were on the receiving end of this, and it's not really funny at all... But I have the most bizarre mental image of the situation in my head... And now the guy looks just like Gollum :lol:
 
Also a bit of a life lesson not to square up to people unless you are able to defend yourself. For all you know he could've been hard as nails and kicked the crap out of you and smashed your skull (you really never know). I had a similar issue a few years back and ended up getting headbutted by a squaddie.... luckily I dipped my head in time and he headbutted my forehead (he was aiming for my nose). He buggered off after that but I don't want to know what would've happened had he not.

One of the many reasons I studied Karate at a young age... I'd have involved the police for assault, end of.

Trust me on this, you defend yourself using martial arts, you get a visit from the boys in blue. Someone once took a swing at me with a large piece of wood (not a baseball bat but that size) after a verbal argument escalated. He woke up in hospital and I had an uncomfortable interview with the local constabulary. Fortunately for me there were witnesses or I suspect I may have been up before the beak.

Edit - a long time ago. I wasn't 20 at the time. Now I'm 50 and far more chilled about life
