When people block my view when I am spotting!
In Brussels back in 2000, I was in the departure lounge watching the aircraft through the window, when a bimbo student type and her boyfriend came and sat right in front of where I was viewing. They weren’t interested in the aircraft, they just seemed to make a point of blocking my view. When that happened again a few years later, also in Brussels, I pushed my way back in front of the view blockers and prevented them seeing anything!
The other week in the aviation viewing park at MAN, I was taking video of an Aer Lingus Boeing 737 as it accelerated down the runway. Just as it was about to lift off, a couple next to me sat their bloody brat on the fence and blocked my filming, so I wasn’t too pleased. People with brats seem to think everyone should shift out of the way and they should have priority in everything, like the family of dross who marched straight to the front of a bus queue in Scarborough the other day. They weren’t going to get on before me, however, and when I made sure I got on first there was the usual yelling accusing me of pushing in front of them, like you get with dross, but I turned round and gave them a mouthful back!
