Whatever happened to those reflective orange armbands that kids like
me wore in the dark during the 70's?

As I recall the main distribution of these were at the introduction of
British Standard Time, so that kids could be seen in the dark mornings.
There was also a big promotion on child road safety at the same time.

The Tufty Club (still a proud member!) and the Green Cross Code man.
I guess they still do road safety promotions at school but I wonder if they
have been pushed to the sidelines as they won't count towards placings
in the league tables?

Cynical?
Well I hope so......
