That wasn't what I meant. Still, don't let that get in the way of your rant. And my observations about young people expecting to go straight into interesting assignments instead of starting with the mundane, everyday tasks like garden fetes came from an article some years ago by the late, great Keith Waterhouse who started out that way himself. Still, what would he know?
He would know what it was like when he started out, what, 70 years ago? Things have moved on a bit since then.
 
The Welsh kids ?

ALL the kidz Den - you know it 'blud' <laugh>

Talking of kidz - my 13 yr old g'daughter called in last Saturday after going into town with mates, she was telling me that her and her mates had been watching some 'road-men' rapping outside Next - now my first thought was, what the **** are men in high viz jackets, who should be mending bastard pot-holes, doing rapping to teenage kids? Turned out there wasn't a high viz jacket in sight and these particular 'road men' have never been near a pot-hole, ever.

I’m with you
No idea what a road man would be other than someone familiar with tarmac and traffic cones?

Top description on Urban Dictionary

Roadmen are an evolved form of the chav which is now an endangered species living in their mums basement recording their next SoundCloud rap with their mate big Dave and Donnie G. The roadman comes from between the ages of 12-18 who cant speak regular English and will only be able to understand you if you use these words in every sentence

-bruv
-blud
-wagwan
-piffting
-peng
-init

If these creatures get aggravated they will spread their arms and shout "YOU WANNA GO BRUV?!" This is your only chance to escape, if you do not run their mates Big Gaz and G-Dot will get involved, calling you a Bati boy. But this is all merely a defence mechanise and despite what they say they will rarely attack.
