No longer, can anyone expect to get out of the rain in the bus shelter but the lines trail off down the street.
Yesterday, it was raining heavily and the school children waiting for the bus were being totally drenched.
No one had a raincoat or umbrella.
Those kids would have been sitting in wet clothes all day.
Imagine the smell of a classful of steaming ados! Teachers deserve holidays

When I was their age, traffic hadn't been invented, because only the rich few, had cars, most had a bike, walked or caught the electric [trolley] bus.
For just after the war there was no money and no fuel .plus ça change, que change .No change there, after 50 years,it seems!
Folks were weather conscious in those far off days.
Every man wore a hat and all school kids a gabardine Mackintosh.
How many schools have a "cloakroom" these days.
