Of people walking/cycling towards me. I'm over 50 and so "invisible" I guessHmm. But people in their 20s mainly just don't seem to feel they have to go into single file and off I go onto the grass or the road Angry

Yes I’m fed up of this too - but it’s usually adults who force my young children out on to the road as they continue walking 2 abreast on the pavement, not even a thank you. I’ve always taught my children to go single file and say thank you

We’ve had this too, but again it’s not a specific age related group . We kinda try and gauge by eye contact as to whether they’re aware were coming and then if not looking like they are intending to move I’ll say louder than usual. “ boys move to the left /right- give the other ppl space please!” And they do so. Some people say oh thanks you and the boys reply your welcome With a smile , and then the ones who don’t even acknowledge the action - the boys have started saying ‘OH your welcome“ anyway They’ve learnt Not everyone has manners
