cyclists making noise, listening to loud music and urinating on their
property.

As I write, there is a fete going on in the green space over the road.
We've had hour after hour of disturbance. Abandoned vehicles blocking
the road, fetists making a noise, music and the continuous clatter of an
ice cream van delivering noxious diesel fumes over my property.

I suppose it's nothing to complain about, after all, it's not cyclists.


So you *own* that "green space over the road", do you?


Do car drivers 'own' the public highway?

As much as the curtain twitchers of Suffolk own the space outside their
houses.

Which reminds me. While the road was blocked we had the usual stuck
motorist screaming and swearing away with the horn.

A lot of people, whether in Suffolk or other counties, do own the space
outside their houses. We own the space outside ours.

Do you own that "green space over that road"?

If not, and subject to the usual town and country planning rules and the
concept of public and private nuisance, why do you take exception to a
fête being held there now and then?

We already know that you object to the féte being held there.

Well, as much as you or them, then.

What is your point?

Please point out where I said that.

But now you say that you don't actually take exception to it.

So that's alright, then.

Phew! I thought we had a problem for a minute...

I should think even a clump of dirt would have got the point.

I certainly object to moronists doing anything (and more) that you
object to about cyclists.

Oh, I also object to absolutely anybody cycling along footways and in
pedestrian-only areas, cycling the wrong way in one-way streets, failing
to comply with give way signs and cycling through traffic lights at red
as though the lights mean nothing.

I'm glad to learn that you object to the same things. I donn't recall
your ever having said so before, so that is real progress.

Of course, it seems that you only object to it when it's a non-cyclist
doing it (which, being an impossibility, represents no real reservation).
