Had dentist appointment a couple of weeks ago, this involved #driving to other side of town in late afternoon around school finishing time.

Encountered *two* school crossing patrols, which now include

* lollipop lady, same as back in the day but now with full hi vis and *bodycam*

* 2-3 men of large build wearing hi vis vests, guarding school exits, literal "multicultural Dads Army"

* at one school (with very busy junction and sharp turns), #PCSO with #bodycam and Airwave radio (a type of #government #officer with some policing powers but not full constable - similar to "handhaving" in NL)

its good they are all keeping the #children safe, but it seemed like a *lot* of boots on the ground required to do this in 21st century
