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?

"Always wear clean underwear, just in case you get run over"Yes mother, thank you for this invaluable bit of advice.
When I was run over by the ageing boy racer who lived down the road from us, the first thing I did when pinned under his MOT-failure Triumph Herald, staring the Grim Reaper in the face, was to empty both my bladder and my bowels.
So: don't bother changing your pants, boys and girls - it makes not the slightest bit of a difference.
