Yes, O Wise One

Look, I have no doubt you're very important, sitting in the clouds far above the 'average user' on here, are at the top of your professional game, know all the right people, have access to a wealth of hidden information that Joe Public can only dream of, not to mention knowing where the best sushi bars are and living on the best road in Dulwich - as you've made sure we all know these crucial facts. So I don't really have any comeback. I doff my cap to you, and bog off to shovel shite with the proletariat.

Can the bucked-toothed Tartan Terror do it? ooh, I say!

Thank God there's still somewhere that adults can go for a quiet drink. Meet you by the climbing frame.

I don't have a problem with it as such. I can just see lots of reasons - genuine practical and safety reasons- why it would be better somewhere else.

Soup is very dangerous

That's very kind ????, but as well you know, my next birthday isn't for another week or two. I will be watching a bit of Tim today, but unfortunately I'm a little tied-up finishing something 'dreadful' for Living TV, as well as creating an exciting promotional DVD soundscape for a company who produces industrial endoscopes. That's right.. You know I'm baaad, I'm Bad, you know it.. ee-heee

Moving away from your useful stats on accidents at zebra crossings and driveways 11,000 miles away.. Intuitively, I'd put the parent car park on away from the main entrance, with a proper raised footpath to walk around to get to the entrance, as opposed to right at the front of the store, where everyone wants to park, where people desperately try to dive in and out of spaces to save half a minute of walking time, with no safe exclusive footpath to get in to the store, right by the drop-off/collection lane where people drive in at speed - all the time, because their in a rush to get in and get out. But, as Hugenot said, sixteen pages back, this is 1% about safety and 99% about retaining customers who spend a wad of cash of their weekly shop.

BAN ZEBRA CROSSINGS Very dangerous places.

One of those links is about a zebra crossing, Taper. I think I'll bow out now, before things just get even more silly.

It doesn't matter how many stories of accidents in car parks you frantically Google, it tells me nothing whatsoever about how dangerous supermarket car parks are. I thought this was clear after an earlier post. I could post another thirty links to other aircrashes, thus showing 'air travel' to be 'even more dangerous'?

What are 'yards'?

That's a document about dangers to children in driveways, yards and (also) car parks - in Australia. Is this the most relevant information available on this hot topic?

Air travel is very dangerous

err.. right That's an article about prangs and scrapes on account of people being cack at parking. It doesn't even mention accidents in car parks involving people, which is what this is supposed to be about. Show us something useful and relevant, such as 'stats on injuries to children in Sainsburys car parks' - and you might be on to something.

I'll be cheering the pube-headed Glaswegian on today! Come on, Tim!
