If you stumbled this morning

Sorry to the poor bloke I tripped up this morning.
I was just making my usual stride, I'm not sure whether the guy changed direction suddenly or I just wasn't being as observent as usual but I managed to kick the guys feet (yes both of them!) with both of mine by just walking normally.

Cow Dung Breath

So I got on the 149 to London Bridge today and had to stand initially but at the next stop and old gentleman who'd been chatting to a 'lady' to the next of him.
I took the opportunity to get out of the aisle and took the gentlman's seat as he got off.
As the bus pulled away I was aware of the woman saying something to me (but had my walkman on). She said something about "bendy" I'm assuming she was talking about something to do with the bus but not really one to talk to people on the bus and having my walkman on I did my best impression of not being able to here her.

As the journey went on it became very clear that the 'lady' was 1/.a few bananas short of a bunch 2/.had breeath than smelt like she'd been eating cow pats all day long.
It was seriously eye wateringly bad! I very nearly started dry heaving on the bus at one point.

I guess I could have offered her a mint but then I might have been forced into a conversation with the nutter and what if she refused the mint and still insisted on trying to hold a conversation with me??
