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?

Robin hoodWhile explaining to my dad that I was going to town to buy an umbrella he offered this:
"Why an umbrella? That won't protect you from arrows."
I think my dad is on drugs...
...but he is right I suppose.
