It’s a veritable Winter wonderland..

Posted by – November 9, 2009

.. out there and I’d really appreciate it if car drivers would consider switching on their lights when driving in the dark as it’s a tad difficult to see a small box on wheels pulling out unexpectedly without them.  Which is precisely what happened to me today when I was cycling home from Sainsburys in Brookwood after work.  I wouldn’t have minded, but he (or she) could spot me a mile off what with my front lights, day-glo jacket, etc. coming up towards them.

While I’m on the subject of Sainsburys, why is it that when I queue up and watch people take tons and tons of plastic carrier bags that when I follow them out the store shortly afterwards that I see them load all those bags into their car?  What’s happened with the re-usable bags?  If you’re going to be doing that much shopping, surely you’d have planned on doing so and as such, would have made your life easier by re-using bags or boxes rather than waste plastic carrier bags?
