…of common sense. Like many I despair at the lack of "common sense" exhibited by some people. It does appear to be dying "skill". Now, technically "common" would define the most, er, common type of sense to exist which means that really at least half of us must have more common sense than others to make it average. Please advise if you think you can help bring clarity to that statement. My blog postings will reflect my thoughts on this. I'm sure they'll deviate to other things from time to time.

Observations from a Window
So, here I am sitting at my desk looking out onto a gloomy last day of 2007. It's been a good year for me though there's plenty about this world I still don't understand. For instance, as I gaze aimlessly into my residential car park I spot the "No dog fouling" sticker that adorns a solitary lamppost creaking in the wind. Now, I don't have a problem with this being here but I do question why the sticker is placed about 1.5 metres up the pole. Now, I know dogs come in all shapes and sizes but I've never met one that tall. The only one that springs to mind was Digby and to the best of my knowledge he was fictional. Even if he wasn't I doubt he'd notice the sign either. How can we expect our village streets to remain clean if we're failing at the first hurdle to get the message out to the relevant audience. Anybody fancy starting a campaign to get stickers places at dog's eye level. No? Me neither.
