Witnessing one of those nice life moments
Thursday November 24th, 2005

Walking near Harley Street in London the other day I saw the following exchange:

Man on big motorbike parks, just beating man on little motorbike to the last parking space. Little motorbike man looks disappointed and asks:

LBM “any chance I can have that space mate? I’m in a real hurry”
BBM “piss off, I was here first. What makes you special?”

BBM takes helmet off. He’s a tough looking fella. Starts to walk away. LBM man shouts something to him. He turns back aggressively saying “what did you say?”

LBM “I said I’ve got a job to do as well. I’ve got a very sick child I’m operating on”
BBM’s face changes. “I’ll move my bike now mate, best of luck”
