Pavement Perils

Posted by John White on 19/6/2026, 12:32 pm

Once it was a happy place
Where pedestrians reigned supreme
To wander along in silence
At a steady measured pace
Free from daily woes and cares -
Safe for those of advanced years

Now danger looms with every pace
From reckless members of the human race
Bikes with no bells, and skateboards too
Scooters void of hooters form a queue
Racing past without forewarning -
More dangerous than global warning

Really good John! Add trams for Manchester, just been on a trip there. You have to be on the ball, enjoyed using them though 😁

Very similar in Brisbane. I just about went my length one morning if I hadn't grabbed the hips of a guy in front. Did he get a shock !!!
