Well according to the Times today SOME councils are considering extending the ban to parks and children's playgrounds..I can understand the latter but not the former.

Also some councils are calling smoking near children as a form of abuse...Do I hear the impending arrival of a new charge against parents warranting the removal of children from the parental grasp?

Then I wonder will we see the removal of children from obese parents..

I'm also thinking about double standards..all those thousands of children across the nation who are the sole carers for a parent or family member which is given a wink and a nod by social services because it cheaper to leave them where they are rather than actually provide the money to pay for professional care.

Never mind me, I'm just depressed by all this bluddy rain...
