If you were the angry postman who yelled at me for my driving on Coldean Lane last Friday morning, I wholeheartedly apologise for being a "f***ing to**er.

The funeral I was about to attend was on my mind.

The fact I braked early meant you avoided attending your own. You were driving too fast and were too close. Your error, not mine.

Sadly, you drove into the depths of Moulsecoomb at a high speed before I could explain.

I hope you didn't run anyone over and managed to get home before half-past ten.

Keep driving safely and perfectly (as you seem to think you do).

Incidentally, it is customary - and a rule of the road - to use your indicators. Or perhaps you don't need to.
