Kids on bikes in the road
Don't know whether you can post this anonymously. 18:03 this evening outside of Mike's fish bar.Bike dumped in the middle of the road just as i turned out of Aldis and then not a care in the world as they ride off down Greenwell Road. Thankfully, I'd seen these kids outside when I pulled into Aldi but there are alot of people who wouldn't have the patience to hang back till they move out of the way.
