FF – Mind the Gap

Mind The Gap

I’ve always known better than to step on a crack in the pavement. Bears, you see. Or bad luck. I suppose bears would be bad luck, so maybe that’s not an ‘or’.

But too many ill-informed city councils replaced tarmac and concrete with brick patterns – interesting and classy and, critically, pedestrianized.

Take away the cars and make the shopping streets safer. Obviously you have to walk further from the now distant carpark, in the rain, but you won’t be scooped up by a bus or sideswiped by a taxi driver. Safer.

Except for the infinitely increased risk of bears.

Extroduction

Bit of a silly one today, with a tribute to AA Milne, and to all the fun of being part of a family who care about such things.

NB – the bears in this weeks’ story are not directly connected to last week’s bears. Pure coincidence. Nothing to see here.

A portant pedestrian safety announcement.
