Free Stand Should children who travel free on buses, sit while fare payers stand?
In London, children travel free on buses. Yet they seem to expect to get a seat even when the bus is full. I've actually seen adults get up and let the kids sit down (and I mean school age children)! My feeling on this is that people who travel free and are able to stand should give up their seats for fare payers.
Thoughts anyone?
To those who think I'm after pensioners, my question clearly states: "people who travel free and are able to stand". To those who think kids are delicate - they bounce, we break.
When I was a child and paying half fare, it was made a condition that I should give up my seat to full fare passenger.
It is extremely annoying to see a bus full of inconsiderate school children spreading themselves all over the seats, whilst watching, a elderly person, or pregnant woman struggling to stay upright.
I thought kids were taught in schools to be considerate and tolerant, what happened?

Choosing Between Fitted and Free Standing Bathroom Furniture
Remodelling your bathroom is a great way of enhancing the general appeal of your home, whether you intend to stay where you are, or you are considering putting your house on the market. What looks good in a bathroom is very much a matter of personal taste and some people experience difficulty when it comes to choosing between fitted and free standing bathroom furniture.
Your bathroom is probably the one room in your house that gets the most use, which is why you not only want it to look good, you also want it to be easily cleaned. Nowadays people tend to choose interior décor and furnishings that fit with their general lifestyle. Whether you choose free standing or fitted bathroom furniture may be decided by the size of your bathroom. If you have a small bathroom, then unless you plan on pulling down walls to extend the room, you will probably be restricted to fitted furniture as it will leave more space to move around.
If you live in an older style house, which probably has larger rooms, then you may want to consider free standing furniture. Some people prefer free standing bathroom furniture because it suits their sense of style. When you live in an older house, the décor and furnishings that you choose may be determined, at least to some extent, by the original design of the room.
The next thing you might want to consider when furnishing your bathroom is your family and whether you like to keep a tidy house or are not too stressed by a bit of clutter. If you like everything to be in its proper place then fitted cupboards and furnishings might fit in better with your lifestyle. Fitted bathroom furniture will give your room a more traditional feel, but you can change the look of your bathroom with different accessories.
Another thing that you will want to consider when you are redesigning your bathroom is your budget. It may be more cost effective to have to have a fitted bath and sink, than it will be to order free standing fixtures and fittings. If you really like the idea of positioning a bath in the middle of the room, and you have enough space to do this, then free standing fixtures may be more appropriate to your needs. When you have free standing bathroom furniture, it does give you the option to alter the look of your bathroom by moving things around in the room.
Families with young children might find that a fitted bath and loo is better and lowers the risk of some kind of accident. There is a wide choice of colour and finish these days so you can still personalise your bathroom. Wooden shelves and fittings also give a more luxurious and modern feel to a bathroom, this will provide you with extra storage space as well, if that is what you need. The forgoing are all things to bear in mind when you are choosing between fitted and free standing bathroom furniture.
