Just watched our local late night news. BBC1 Look North. A Mum went into a shop with her two year old toddler who was wearing a lovely warm coat with an attatched hood. Guess what?? Hoodies are not allowed in the shop and she was asked to pull down the hood of the little boys coat as is was a strict rule. Ok it took me a long time to understand why motor cyclists were not allowed to wear their crash helmets in our local Morrison's. But surely this is taking things a bit too far??

Not sure what part of the country it was in, but a little while ago it was on the news that a restaurant had asked a middle-aged lady to leave because she was wearing .....wait for it .....a Marks & Spencer cashmere cardigan with hood!! She didn't even have the hood up!! Mandy :)
