Quote of the Day

"There's a lot to learn about how to walk. If you were going out for a Sunday afternoon stroll you might walk one way. If you're trying to catch a train you might walk in another way and if you are doing a cliff walk you might walk in another way."
Acting deputy general secretary of the Association of Teahers and Lecturers, Martin Johnson, on the introduction of lessons in walking on the National Curriculum.

Update Chris Paul has left a comment below suggesting that this was an April's Fools joke. It may well have been, but it was actually in the Guardian on Friday March 30th.

So very true. Well done Dizzy. All the papers were full of them. My partner considered that the Observer was almost 100% foolish yesterday. While over at my blog some punters thought it was just business as usual.

You're right, Dizzy. And it was also in the Daily Mail (online) on Friday, and in the Telegraph also, I think.
