    So walking home, a gate swung out and almost took me out. The gate usually ties up to another gate with a bike lock thingy and blocks the driveway into a construction site. Seems the tradies ordered a tools down to go protest but decided not to close the gates.

    I mean I don’t really care about that, pretty sure it’s being built by one of those dodgy developers that buys thousands of homes, demolishes them all, builds 48 units per sqm and then sells each one for the same price they bought the entire land for, I hardly care if somebody comes and smashes up the tool site. But the issue is, it’s really fucking windy, and the gates are swinging with no warning onto the footpath. That’s dangerous for a.normal person, bit I can’t help but wonder what’s gonna happen if somebody in a wheelchair or a walker tries to go past. Their options are either wheel/walk on the uneven grass, or get hit by the fence
