Hmmmm interesting. I have gotten up this winter and in previous 2 winters to

icy
surfaces on many occasions and nobody ever told me to be careful. Strewth I

even
drove up the hill outside our house the other day in hard packed snow and

ice
and nobody warned me. I even went to do a bit of sightseeing on snowy roads

and
nobody warned me of the dangers. And then the other day I walked 1400 feet

up
on
the open moor in driving snow with less than 100m visibility and the

temperature
well below freezing but nobody told me it was dangerous and that I shouldn't
have done it. Why wasn't I warned ? :-)


It's a miracle you're still alive, Will


I know that *now*. Strewth, I've gone all funny ... :-)

Will.

I fully understand that with the claim culture that we now live in,

head
teachers are afraid of their own shadows when it comes to a child

slipping
over and having an accident on school premises.


Len,

You have answered your own perennial question, you need to insert "
travelling to and from the premises" as well.

The best players always have been in the crowd!

Best wishes,

Ken Cook, retired headteacher. (I was never short of advice on how to
run my school, whether I wanted it or not!)

You should write for the Daily Mail. They would appreciate such
drivel.


Paul


Well I'm a Guardian reader and I agree with Len as apparently do most people
here!
The only drivel is the media and papers like The Daily Mail spinning this
weather as severe when clearly it isn't. Still it seems to have fooled some
people.;-)
(Possibly excuse some people in a few parts of Kent. North Easterners cope
anyway!)
