We were at a show Friday, arrived around 1700. A guy with a motorhome close has a genny running, and it wasn't quiet either - sounding a bit like two skeletons shagging in a biscuit tin... It's fine though, there's a bit of other noise and sometimes there's a need.
There wasn't anything of the show on that evening so we stayed at the van. Set everything up, BBQ, few beers, and a small fire in the pit. Genny hasn't stopped besides when it ran out of fuel and it's now gone 2200. Everything else is quiet, boy's trying to sleep and we're trying to unwind. I'll go and ask what the deal is.
Tap tap on the door, not to make anyone £$%^ themselves. From behind me:
WOOOOFFF.
Bollocks lol. Offered out a hand to a rather large German Sheppard (?) "Hello mate"
"Ah, you're good" says the dog. "I don't even like them, making me sleep out here, there's loads of room in that van."
Door opens. Lump stood there and doesn’t speak.
“Hello mate, I was just wondering about the generator. Boy’s trying to sleep and it is gone ten O’clock...”
“Get out”
“What? I’m just asking when you might turn it off. As I said, Boy’s trying to sleep and everything else is quiet”
“Watching a film, get out”
“Ah, ok, cool. How long is left?”
“Get out”
“Tell me how long, and I’ll be off, it’s no problem”
“Get out” He’s coming down the steps pushing me now and we get as far as the fcuking genny and I go ass over tit backwards over it. Get up, dodged his swing and lamped him a couple of times. That stopped him pushing and as soon as he took a step back I turned and left.
I walked further up the field wondering what the hell is wrong with people and there were a bunch of blokes there who said they heard it all and couldn’t believe how one, the bloke was such a clown, and two, how well I kept my cool.
Genny was off by the time I got back to the van lol.
They trundled off to the show around 1030 and were packed up and gone by the time we got back to start on some food around 1630. Peaceful for the rest of the weekend, and quite a good show (Castle Combe Steam rally, Saturday and Sunday)
Unbelievable.
