Back to the topic: pedestrians that walk on cycle paths and either can't hear(because of some gadget in their ear) or won't move when I ring the bell. Or they turn around and glower and still don't move. I often feel Road Rage coming on

Just accidently catch them with your foot as you pass.........

I do try and control my feelings at those times, but it 's getting harder

I used to get terribly annoyed about people who walked through a door I held open, or walked down a narrow path I had vacated for them, and just ignored me. I got to the point of saying "you're welcome" in a snotty voice, to their retreating back. Then the penny dropped that I was now being just as objectionable as them, even if I had a better reason. So I now restrict myself to a shake of the head and a haughty look on a bad day, and a private grin on a good one. What can be fun is if you catch the eye of the next person, who has better manners and knows exactly what's going through your mind.

My pet hate is when I am walking along cycle paths
and SOMEONE cycles past and kicks me

Misuse of apostrophes. The local convenience shop always have hand written signs such as "All customer's with pram's must use basket's"! Yeesh!

Odd. I am just the opposite. I hate cyclists that ride on the pavement forcing people to dodge out of the way. A particular hazard to elderly people who may not be quick enough or unsteady on their feet.

If there is no cycle path they should be on the road.
