Danger ahead.

Leicester has launched a new road safety campaign. Lifelike child bollards are being placed outside schools to warn approaching drivers.
They are very innocent looking, and my biggest fear is that they will attract paedophiles, a lot more dangerous than cars.

If they are serious about slowing down traffic what we need are posters like this -

In regard to the child bollards I will not make the obvious joke....

Yuck... Can you imagine seeing one of those things after a few glasses of vino... You'd brown your pants!

I swear jno was here when I answered.

I certainly was not, I was eating some nice lemon sorbet after a Mexican meal (I like to mix my hemispheres).

The unfortunate prospect is that these bollards will be abducted, which is increasingly happening to children in this country.

They will soon go the way of garden gnomes, I am afraid.

Mmmm... I quite fancy mexican now. I must be going mad jno... It's fairly likely in all fairness.

Hiya yinyang, CD and jno.
I can't understand anyone kidnapping a child bollard, they must be sick.

Not so easy to catch them dan, if they're taking them home.

Most unrealistic; Kids in Leicester dressed in school uniform?
