Meh!

[davidgillon]

I've been feeling a bit <i>meh!</i> all week, which I'd put down to how poorly I'd been sleeping, but a sneezing fit just revealed I've got some sort of sinus-bug as well. Normal service will resume when I feel up to dealing with more than 240 characters at a time. {*Goes to hunt for Lemsips *}

And in other news, if you park needlessly* close to a car with a wheelchair symbol in the back window, don't be surprised if I sit on your bonnet to get the chair into the boot.

* And by needlessly close I mean under 2 feet, with enough space clear behind that someone parked a large cargo van in it at first attempt while I was humping the chair in.

Sorry to hear about the sinus bug--feel better soon!

[davidgillon]

Thanks - can't be too bad, re-read 200 pages of line edits last night to get back up to speed.

I hope you feel better soon! ^_^

Thanks!

May all your sinuses be as wide open as the New Mexican skyline, pardner.

[davidgillon]

Well, maybe not quite that big!

I hope you're feeling better soon; sinuses are cruel things.

Ahhh, yes, bad parkers. We may have accidentally scraped a few lately, on account of it being either squeeze between them and the hedge, or wheel on the road.

To be honest, the sinus side is so low-key I'd almost forgotten about it this morning. But now I'm thinking about it, there's definitely something still there - time for more lemsip :)

While I don't think I've actually scraped anyone's car with the chair, I definitely considered it yesterday - I actually had the chair in contact with both bumpers, trying to figure out how to get it in, and if anyone's bumper was getting scraped, it wasn't mine ;)

What I tend to do with anyone parked inconsiderately when I need to get past is turn their wing-mirrors in.

Good idea - they're bound to notice it, and perhaps it'll get them thinking about the fact they've left a narrow space.

Get well soon!
