Incredibly slippy this morning on the Hayes. I wonder what caused this danger? And how could I be covered in oil after I'd picked myself up off the floor? 🤔🤷

Example of the difference between public & private liability risk assessment.
Ask yourself: for safety reasons, is lighting essential on a walking (and cycling) route to & from a popular destination?

I always wonder what sort of person just casually throws litter on the floor. How do they justify it in their heads?

So sick of this bullshit. At 20mph there are drivers half a mile away being prioritised over these people

Cycle/mobility/scooter/skater lanes with a floating bus stop that's been there for at least 20 years without the sky falling in.

Bonus points for motor-traffic-specific sign, fallen over, blocking half the lane 🤷
