New run discovered!

Hi all,
Now that I know that you're all completely barking, given what's being said in the threads lately, I figured that it might be safe to go back to running. Only for a while mind you.
Anyway, after passing my driving test, and trying to chill out by going food shopping, I knew that the only cure was to go for a run. Good old reliable running, always there for you when you're stressed! So I got out my OS map, plotted a new, mostly off-road route, and went for it. Turned out to take me 30 minutes, along canals and rivers, through fields with cows and horses. Sadly, got heckled twice, once in a nasty sexual manner by a passing bloke on his bicycle, the second time by a little girl in a car - 'keep going, keep going!'
So of course, the main question is, I got the registration number of the car- do I stalk the owner and chastise him/her for raising such a little brat?
Cheers,
Hild

Congratulations on passing your driving test. Now beware the temptation to park right by the supermarket to do your shopping, load up the car, and drive the few yards across the car park to put your empties in the recycling bins. I caught myself on the verge of doing that once.
Cheers, V-rap.
I thought Hildy meant the father of the heckling brat.
The last thing we need is kids trying to encourage us. I say Hangings too good for him.
Nail his sorry ass.
Barkles - you sound very certain. Do you have experience with this sort of thing? Do too many wise-arse children live on your street? (Perhaps even in your house?) If so, how can I find out the owner of a car from the registration?
As for the sexual comments from the bike, a few nails or a stick to put through his spokes.
Accept the child is innocent, relatively.
The story goes something like this. Sorry if this is your story and I get some of the detail wrong, but....
Picture runner out for evening run and 3 girls come past in a car with windows down, all dressed up and with more war paint on than Big Chief Fighting Bull. The first attack is launched from the females to our defenseless running hero.
However, 100m further up the street there is a set of traffic lights and the same car with the same 3 girls is forced to stop. The girls launch salvo 2 as our hero goes running past.
When the lights eventually turn and the girls approach for the 3rd attack on the runner, he remembers that he has an unused bottle of a very well known sticky sports drink. The car slows, windows open, the mouths open to let forth a third round of insults, and our running friend fires with same stick sports drink and hits all 3.
Who are left sitting in car with war paint running down their cheeks and their frocks all sticky!!!!
Who was this hero... Identify yourself.
Ignore the child but keep an eye out for this bloke on the bike. I would report that to the Police, he may be known to them.
Ever thought of swearing at them in latin!
Confession time. Preparing for FLM, I did some long runs in the Forest of Dean area.
One particularly cold day, 15 miles gone, freezing rain- couldn't feel anything below the waist( and you know how us guys like to fondle!) I am running through an insignificant village. Bursting for a pee.
A large four wheel drive driven by a tiny old-ish guy swerves across the road to ensure he got me with a huge puddle - 4ins deep plus.
Soaked and desperate for a toilet stop I watch as the vehicle turns into a drive in the middle of nowhere. As I reach said drive my buddy alights from car.
I relieved myself in the middle of his gateway, waved happily and trotted on my sodden way.No word from him tho'.
Not proud of it, but he deserved it.
Git.
I'm not surprised he didn't want to shake your hand
It is when the younger ones (about 8-10years) start running with me - they can't keep up
Whizzy
Snoop - might you have a less severe warm up reply to suggest? Perhaps one with less ************* in it? I guess the question I need to ask is - what sort of insult hurts a man the most - and how can I fit it into this particular situation?
But not me.
Obviously.
So, give me some quips to try!
Doctor Pepper - whats the worst that can happen?
See the tree how big it's grown.
Name the shoes after Jon
These should be interesting
