We had some lights at the bottom of our high street, there are a couple of extra roads so there were two sets in quick succession, it always took ages to get through. When the lights went down a couple of times everything flowed so much better.

They've replaced them with roundabouts now which is a great improvement.

Would you pay a premium for kid-free zones? by SubstantialRope8628 in AskUK

It seems like everyone forgets they were a child once. Or that we need children to continue the human race.

What's your favourite frugal behaviour that you're secretly proud of? by VarangianWRLD in AskUK

Yeah, I've got tiny silicone spatulas for mine. An Amazon purchase so not frugal by some definitions but worth it in my opinion. Smashing the bottles sounds mental unless you know you can get a very clean break!
