    We were told not to get the bags on wheels for the kids. They are a bit of a danger to other kids as they will generally not be looking where they are going and will fall over them.

    In relation to the Hi-Vis vests, I'm all in favour of them. The more visible the better. If 1 of the group of kids cycling darts out of the group, the easier it is for you to see it the better.
    There are things called 'toddle waddles' where groups of toddlers will be out learning the safe cross code, thye would all be wearing the hi-vis vests as well.

    People who sit on the seat in front of you on the bus,but don't sit facing ahead like normal people,and instead sit sideways with their legs stretched out.I don't want to be making awkward eye contact with some eejit who doesn't know how to sit properly for my entire commute to work!

    Always wanted to say that, no idea why, it's just I always think it when I see your username Lizzie and I'm thinking to myself where the hell have I heard that phrase before.... dammit that's annoying!

    Also, can all the funny fcukers please piss off before the next thread, it's wrecking my thumbs and hurting my jaws laughing, and even trying not to laugh, while I'm thanking your posts!

    The logistical nightmare of being a woman. Graduated a while ago and as we were queing to go in I said to a friend, "should have gone to the bathroom before" and he said (I kid you not), "sure you could run in now" - run in. Just like that. Run in and run out again. That's ok when you only have to zip down and whip out. Whole other ball game (if you'll pardon the pun) when you've 5 inch stilettos, pants that ride up, tights that go the opposite way while pretending to tuck in and push out (or some other gravity defying feat), magic "superhero" pants over the whole lot that you have to battle in and out of while trying to keep normal pants from disappearing somewhere they'll never come back from and worrying about putting fingers through tights (anti-ladder my árse) - all to take off 10lbs and improve the posture. No zip and whip for us girls that's for sure. Run in......pffffft :(

    Why do people think kids need hi viz jackets in bright sunshine, in Summer? I've just seen a long line of kids cycle past, must be some sort of Summer camp thing, probably about 14 or so kids of about 8/9 years of age, all of them were wearing hi viz vests and helmets. I get the importance of helmets but ffs, the hi viz vests are too much and over the top.

    The other day I saw a group of kids in their early teens out walking and again they were in hi viz jackets. Sweet Jesus how did my generation manage without them. Likewise with these wheeled mini suitcases that people use as school bags for kids:rolleyes:

    I wondered that when I saw Owen Keegan, on the news, on his way into the hearing earlier this week about those bloody concerts. He was wearing one of those jackets.
