AS the young of today seem so keen to point out, they have no facilities May I remind them that during my teenage years many happy hours were spent in the Anderson Shelter with my parents and my elder sister Ethel playing both board and word games.
Why is it these teenagers seem to turn to lives of violent crime if there is not a skateboard park within 10 minutes of there house?
Perhaps it is a fault of the present education system that they seem incapable of amusing themselves without the company of Sonic the Hedgehog.
Perhaps, instead of literacy and numeracy, children should be taught more socialising skills, and perhaps they should be taught it is not polite, let alone necessary, to spit on every 10 yards of pavement.
