Useless adviceAs a new parent, people seem to think it's OK to pass on any and every old wives tale possible. "Don't hug him too much". What? Quite what possesses people to pass on baseless, idiotic, useless advice I don't know.
That said, I quite often give car drivers directions and then, after they've moved off, realise that I've sent them down a bike-only route, so I can give as good as I get.
What useless advice have you been given (or handed out) recently?

grans give the best adviceWhen a mate of mine was choosing which universities to apply to, and in particular deciding between Oxford and Cambridge (you can only apply to one), her gran gave her this pearl of wisdom:
"Don't go to Oxford. People get murdered there, I saw it on Inspector Morse."
