Walk to School Week

[Sticks]

Next week is Walk to School Week (http://www.walktoschool.org.uk) :dance:

On this site I came across quite an amusing ditty (To hear it you will need WinZip (http://www.winzip.com))

Download from here (2.74 MB) (http://www.walktoschool.org.uk/download/graphics/doing_your_bit.zip)

Thank God it isn't walk to college/uni week. I'd have to walk all 20-something miles of it. :shocked:

Made worse by the fact I'm more like: :elephant: than: :dance:

If you have managed to download it, these are the lyrics to the walking song
(As best as I can transcribe them)

So all together now ... :hugesmile:



The Walking Song

You can reduce the load
Out on the busy road
Doing your bit by walking

Why do you cough and choke?
When you can reduce the smoke
Doing your bit by walking

Makes more sense when you walk than driving
Nice Fresh air that your gonna keep alive in
Lets all shout, we’re happy when we’re walking
Much more fun, lots of time for talking
Happy when we’re walking

We want to hear you say, you’re gonna start today
Doing your bit by walking

Ask if you can be allowed
To come on and join the crowd
Doing your bit by walking

Makes more sense when you walk than driving
Nice Fresh air that your gonna keep alive in
Lets all shout, we’re happy when we’re walking
Much more fun, lots of time for talking
Happy when we’re walking

We want to hear you say, you’re gonna start today
Doing your bit by walking

Ask if you can be allowed
To come on and join the crowd
Doing your bit by walking

Doing your bit by walk - walk - walk walking

Let’s Walk!

Its not so good out walking when you get hayfever!!!!

Though to be serious I now walk part of the way to and from work - it has certainly helped with my diet. Though I dont know if I will be singing this.
