Stand off, kettle on

With cars parked continuously on one side of the road, the narrow high street was a nightmare. Driving through required common sense.

The bus driver had committed himself to moving to the opposite side of the road 100 yards back. The man driving the other way was in a hurry. Technically he had right of way. He planned to assert this. The result... standoff.

With no passengers aboard, the bus driver went to reason with the man. Nothing doing!

The bus driver walked back past my door.

"Fancy a cuppa?" I asked.

"Thanks, mate!"... as he walked into my house.
