Nice to see the new zebra crossing outside South Malling School. Hopefully it will slow traffic down to a reasonable degree. Now please do some bollards around the grass verges.

As opposed to the Lollipop Lady that used to be there? I'd wager people would slow down more for a person in hi-viz standing in front of their car than they will for a zebra crossing. This was a cost-cutting exercise, nothing more.

The Lollipop Lady was only there for an hour a day Ed. Kids need to cross the road from after school clubs, to go to the park in the evenings and at the weekends. The crossing is long overdue. Hopefully traffic might actually stop there, unlike the crossing by the station where you generally have to take your life in your hands.

She's still there? I take it back then. I used to always see her when I was on my way to work at eight o'clock, not seen her this week so assumed they'd binned her off now there's a new crossing. She must have started working later or something.

Ed: It's the Easter Holidays. Of course the lolipop lady won't be on duty.

School holidays finished on Monday, mate, unless South Malling have gone for a week of Baker days or whatever they call them these days (Inset days?).
