Actually .. WHBU or was he just a nastly little man?

[ProfessorPreciseaBug]

Ok some of us have car stickers in this referendum malarky .. It's just that my car stickers are 8ft by 4ft! (I have a people carrier and got someone to mount them on the roofrack).. So doing my bit I was parked up on a bridge over a dual carriageway where the message in the boards will be very visible to lots of commuters.

The bridge is not an urban clearway. It has a very wide footpath and there were only about four people come past in an hour... Until one chap comes up taking photographs. I ask him what and he says "I am sending this to the police"

I can only assume that he doesn't like the message on my car stickers and wanted to be nasty. Is this what the referrendum is bringing people to

Was it 'our Graham' from the Jezza Kyle Show?

Was it possible for pedestrians - including wheelchairs users and pushchairs - to safely get past your car without having to go on the road?

If the answer to that's no, then you were causing an obstruction. Regardless of whether or not any "mums with buggies" appeared or not.

The mans appearance is completely irrelevant. I suspect he was probably more bothered by your pavement parking than your political views.

Also, a giant sign on top of a car is unlikely to sway my voting.

Was it Jeremy Corbyn?

He's in his 60s, but looks younger without his cap on...

OP's disgruntled pedestrian:

OP, how much time have you spent sitting on bridges???

How would the man speak to you before you wound your window down?

What has his beard got to do with anything?

I am pissing my sides at the idea of someone thinking their stupid poster will persuade anyone to vote for their POV. How hilarious! Hey, one time I saw a bumper sticker saying 'Honk if you had sex last night'. What kind of idiot would actually honk?!

You were causing an obstruction on the pavement and would have got a ticket had a cop been passing and you were causing a frankly dangerous distraction. Idiot.

Maybe OP is a troll hunter by profession. Would explain the loitering on bridges.

I don't know which side you're on but such signs would be more likely to vote for the opposite.

Mango has got it in one! This was Jeremy wasn't it?

Seriously? What do uou expect to achieve? Some undecided voter drives along, sees your car and all of a sudden thinks "yes, I know how to vote now?"

Well the people outside my station tonight loudly exhorting commuters to 'Vote Remain' clearly think that is a tactic that works on anyone who might still be undecided. Or is that OK as it's the Remain camp doing it?

OP??

Is this a crossover from the Tom Hiddleston photo thread?

I've been lying here in a hospital bed watching this thread all day. My, it has given me a giggle!

Are we sure OP is not having us on? Surely she must be? Or am I just to drugged to realise??

ILove, knowing this OP, I don't think she is necessarily having us on.

Hope you're getting better.

Op, what does his age and "small beard" have to do with it??!

You are clearly barking. I bet you're a Brexiter.

Mango, his face needs a slap with a wet fish at the best of times but that manic garish laugh is scary

Cakeninja, just for you x

Lol Concrete!

Is that actually a polling station or has he been duped by a Remain prankster?!

I am assuming OP is for 'leave' because I have only seen 'leave' posters/signs on the motorways.

Waaaah Concrete
He looks like a creepy It's A Small World exhibit - horrid!!

If it was a vote out sign, then yabu.

If it was a vote remain, then yabu for making other remainers look foolish with your silly distracting sign.

HTH

Congested under the bridge you say
