Roz, I found the pavements slippery as well but my fear of my and my childrens falling on them pales into insignificance when compared against the slight (even very slight) chance of my crashing into the front of the school and injuring parents and children.

I really dont fancy a spell in jail and that's where I would be heading.

The yellow zig zags are there for a reason, there are NO excuses for parking or stopping on them when the are in enforcement times.

Next you will be telling us it's OK to park on zebra/pelican crossings??

I await your response with interest.
