A Letter (Mardi Gras ettiquette)
Dear People standing next to me at the Druids parade tonight,
You should really remove your child from the ladder before you relocate it. An adult holding each side of the ladder does not really provide enough stability during the moving process to guarantee that your child will not find himself on the ground. Thankfully it worked okay this time. Also, when relocating the ladder, you should check to make sure there is no one currently occupying the space into which you wish to move. Should someone be in that space, as I was this evening, you should either refrain from moving the ladder or offer and excuse me and a reason as to why it is essential that you move the ladder. Simply bumping into someone's side as shoving them out of the way is not sufficient. Hopefully, these suggestions will help you during the next six days.
Respectfully,
The person standing next to you at the Druids parade, who you shoved out of the way while relocating your ladder
