Subject: RE: BS: Are London Buses Too Narrow
Hi

I can understand the problems of the mums too.
They have to get around and bus is often the only way they have.

I don't mind the buggies on the bus. Usually ( in fact aways around here) the mums are polite and aware if they are blocking access and try to clear a way. Other passengers often help and it is accepted - usually most gratefully.

What I do find a bit of a bind is the way in which mums leave the buggies all over the place when going into public places like cafes, bars pubs etc. They just appear to abandon them where-ever they feel like and often it is difficult to get to the bar etc.

Of course things have changed - years ago you could leave your kid in the pram outside .....not today !!! And if the mums leave the buggy and take the child in.......it will probably get nicked !!!

It's not the mum's fault it is society today that is mostly to blame.

Cheers
