Here's one for PC who hates children being dropped off at school. The Scots, those great regulators, are considering introducing no parking zones around schools.
A total of 27 per cent of primary pupils were taken to school by car, and 15 per cent of secondary pupils. Walking has declined overall from 56 per cent in 2002 to 51 per cent in 2004. Cycling has remained at around 1 per cent.
What a great idea. It's not as though it ever rains or snows in Scotland is it? And just over one in four being driven to school! What a disaster.

Yep, let's ban 'em. The only way to get independence for children is to discourage it for adults. ;^)
I take it your property hasn't slipped, Lindsay?
We are fine thanks. The condemned house is at the north end. Looking very precarious. What a heartbreak. And what a frustration for the other 24 families who can't get back into their homes. Hard to see how that many homes are under threat. Hope the authorities aren't going overboard.
