I don't know if I'm getting old and grumpy or what,but last night I went Tescos to get a few bits and when I was heading back to my car I heard the screeching of tyres and roaring of engines.
I stopped and watched in amazement as 2 hot hatches tore across the car park between all the parked cars at a very high speed and obviously not in complete control narrowly missing the cars and several shoppers.
They then cut across the outer parking bays the wrong way and out onto the main road and round the mini-roundabout causes three cars to swerve and brake to avoid being crashed into.
Now this happened not in some inner city or even large town but in sleepy old Norfolk in the lovely market town of Diss where I have lived for the last 25 years happy in the belief that I and my wife and 2 children were safe from this kind of mindless behavior.
I do fel sorry for the teenagers here as there isn't a lot for them to do , but how can you defend the vast majority who are really nice people and get a lot of undeserved bad press because of the few who don't care how they behave or think about the dire consequences of their reckless actions.
Well am just an old grumpy git or someone who wished=s that the youngsters will wise up before they either themselves or worse somebody else.
