It was definitely un-cool for any parent to accompany you to school back in my school-daze [Big grin.png]

Just an update.
We have had a coach picking the kids up for swimming this week so I stuck a few cones out opposite our zig zags so there would be room for traffic to pass when the coach returns at home time.
I walked out to find the cones had been moved and parents had parked along the road meaning the whole road was now blocked when the coach arrived.
Yesterday, I made 15 no parking signs on A3, stuck them on posts and then found every traffic cone I could find and lined the road. It looked so excessive and made the head laugh but it worked. Hopefully they have no got the message!! (Probably not)
