Why can't these kids walk?

The kids can walk, it's the parents that are the problem.


More places should operate the "Walking Bus" system - a Mum setting
off on foot with kids, picking up other kids and occasional Mums en
route.

In Dolgellau many Mums walk the kids to school then congregate in
local caf for panad afterwards, a very sociable arrangement.

That's good news but how many people here know that "panad" is
colloquial Welsh for a cuppa? :-)
