Look upon this as a first step in despatching Nanny back to the
Nursery.

This works fine in rural parts of Britan where the councils have
neither the need nor the money to put extra signs and footpaths in.
The differennce between rural Britain and London is that in London
there is a lot more traffic, drivers are often stressed and the
driving style is completely different.


It works perfectly well in Holland.

I didn't dispute this point. I made the point that London drivers have
a unique driving style which will not fit in well with this idea.


Are there not already pedestrian street in London? If not London drivers
will have to adapt.
