Carpathius Jul 2021 4:59pm, 2 Jul 2021 20,858 posts	Quote Pin Carpathius I live opposite a primary school. People can't park worth shit. And appear to have never heard of the highway code.
Wednesday Mouse Jul 2021 6:58pm, 2 Jul 2021 1,473 posts	Quote Pin Wednesday Mouse Yep. My block of flats is opposite a school. The very clearly signed private car park is chock full at 9am & 3pm. Cars all over the place, parents and kids just wandering about without a care.. And as much as it's a frustrating nightmare, I'm mostly concerned that someone's going to get hurt with total lack of awareness from parents, kids and drivers.

I live on a big crossroads and the amount of shunts, bumps, and crashes caused by poor drivers has been eye-opening - especially when it rains. We like to pop out onto the balcony to look on at the culprits in judgement ]

GordonG Jul 2021 11:16am, 5 Jul 2021 8,630 posts	Quote Pin GordonG The overuse of the work 'heartbroken', when 'disappointed' or 'sad' would be more appropriate. Especially famous people who are 'heartbroken' to hear something about a fan, when in all likelihood they won't remember the name of that fan in a couple of days.
