Interesting piece on Radio 4 Today this morning about "childproof containers".
There are 25,000 incidents a year involving children.

I thought it was BeHit who put 25000 children into containers.

Tee-hee! :-)

From the **** Happens department - BeHIT keep saying that cycling is a
leading source of death and head injury in children, but:

- over twice as many children die from congenital abnormalities as
from cycling
- more children die of leukaemia than from cycling
- more children die following assault than a cycle crash
- more children die from asthma and other respiratory diseases than
from cycling
- over twice as many children die of brain cancer than cycling head
injuries.
- as many children die of menigitis as of cycling head injuries.
