I have full waterproofs on, and it stops raining!
Great, nice to get sweaty!
Gloves gets took off and open the winter coat abit.
Some car drivers don't understand the word STOP on my stick.
My shift was getting better until this happened.
I had stopped a 21 reg plate blue mini to cross a parent back over, when I glanced over at the woman driver of the mini and she mouthed
"ARSEHOLE!" to me!
I am just trying to do my job!
It's a pity I couldn't launch my lollipop stick like a javelin to her back window....
At least it wasn't the finger she gave me!
Finished in one piece.

I puts on my lights.
Chats with one friend until I start my shift.
Just as I am starting, I stick my lollypop stick out to stop a grey Land Rover, My stick was inches away from the tap and crack of her windscreen!
