Some car drivers don't realise you have to stop when I put my big stick out.....
In a little world of their own, and they go under it!
They have a BOING for their trouble.
A teenager tried to cross on her own over the busy road further down from me.
She gave up and crossed over with me in the end.
Towards the end, I had to shout to one parent pushing a pram, that a car wouldn't stop.It didn stop when my big stick appeared.
It tried to go, but another parent crossed over, and my big stick was in the way.
*Photo time for the local newspaper celebrating International Women's Day*
It will be in tomorrow's newspaper.
