It is, in its way, impressive, that parents, mums and dads, should want to spend this time with their children, but I do wish they would just do it at home instead of spreading themselves everywhere, so there’s nowhere to sit down, or get a cup of tea, or walk in a straight line anywhere but weave around buggies, inattentive toddlers & gormless teens.
To make it worse there's a fad for scooters; I counted four of them on the bus today.
Even the radio is not its normal self. Half the programmes seem to have stand in presenters, because the loyalty of the regulars is with their kids, not us.
And of course I shall have flu next week.
Let’s hope that the swine flu epidemic that almost never was has not just been lurking spitefully lying in wait for this.
