Speechless, save to say, “What a dee-light”!

I understand that there *is* a practical use for those ‘baby on board’ signs – if there are no adults left alive at the scene of a crash, the rescue crew will literally take the car apart in case there WAS a baby on board.

Just sayin’.

Is putting out flowers a public spectacle? And lordy, is it really so offensive? It’s like people who get wound up by “Baby on Board” signs in cars – haven’t you got anything better to complain about?

“Grief at death is not sentimentality.”

It is when you make a public spectacle of it.

Well, I was also suggesting that your rant was not differentiating also, DD. For example, I have absolutely no problem with people putting flowers on kerbsides to mark someone’s death. If a member of their family or a friend has died, then I’m certainly not going to be the insensitive, miserable b*stard who tells them that their grief offends me. Grief at death is not sentimentality.

Perhaps it’s demographic? While I was childless almost nothing would move me to tears. Once we’d had a nipper, almost anything would – the most formulaic, mechanical, predictable drama would bring a mini-glisten to my eyes. (Not Princess Di, though, obviously. Nor bloody footballers.) Help me, I’m a victim of hormones. It’s not my fault!

A note for the uninitiated: People who dare to call David Duff in for the nonsense he writes have *always* mis-read what he wrote.

When that fails, he gives up and ‘goes snide’, to the extent of wishing his sparring partners dead (alas not mortally).

Ironically, of course…
