WTaF?
civilisation is circling the plughole.
Cock all to do with Health and Safety at work or any of the other managemnt Regs, everything to do with ambulance chasing toss pots, and fear of being sued by someone. It's easier to put it under "elfnsafety" than say "basically as humans you disgust us, you take no accountability for your own actions and will have your hand out for money as soon as trip over a brightly painted stone, whilst glued to your sodding mobile phones, you utter, utter plebs. you are the reason why we cant have nice or fun things"
also see: school trips, conkers, local fairs/fetes or anything else where members of the public can act like pricks and demand that someone else pays for it 😀
Persecuted rocks.
Tazzy's spot on.
Duckist!!!
Of course it could be bullshit someone making a story out of nothing.
tazzy +1
Think Tazzy summed that up nicely 😀
Like no kid has ever picked up a random stone-coloured stone to lob at a duck or a swan before. Or anyone has ever tripped over something hidden in the grass.
Or their own feet.
