Oh, they have one of these at the Queen Margaret Hospital in Dunfermline too. People looked at me like I was an alien when I turned up there on a bike to visit a relative, then proceeded to negotiate the cigarette ends to park my bike - the only one there, I might add! That's despite the hospital being sited on one of the main shared use cycle routes in the area...

Well it is only to be expected to find cycle parking being used as a smoke shelter at a Hospital. NHS staff are reluctant to encourage cycle or discourage smoking, it is bad for business...
Health promotion? What is that? If we banned smoking and cars, there would be far to many health people about and seriously slim down the NHS ;-)

and yet the shiny new cycle rack outside Haymarket appeared to be jam packed tonight, no room for the smokers! B-))
Spaces getting fewer on the train as well, I'll be getting grumpy if I can't get spaces just as I get the tourer/commuter tickety-boo!Posted 13 years ago #
