Right, it's about time I revealed a theory that I've been postulating for the last few months. It may be peculiar to Mid Sussex - I'm not sure, as the pavements in Brighton are so over-crowded. I need to road-test it in other parts of the country.
The theory is this:
"Given a long, empty pavement, which only you and one other person are using, you can bet your bottom dollar that you and said person are competing for exactly the same piece of pavement, to the point where you're almost walking in each others' shoes."
I see this in action almost every day, and considering that there could be 300 metres of empty pavement in either direction, just what are the chances of it happening? Maybe it's time to start buying Lottery tickets.
