...when using a test case of baby (ie Markus) can now be exclusively revealed! Mr.ncot and I have been collecting data and the results are now in.
Picture the scene. Proud, doting parents push fresh new baby in buggy (bassinet style with hood). The style of the buggy means that passersby can't sneak a look at the contents of buggy without us noticing.
Our original hypothesis has been confirmed, all women, whether 8 or 80 look in the buggy. Up til today, we didn't think this finding applied to the male sex.
But this afternoon, in the tram going home, a white haired business man of about late 50s, early 60s was standing next to the buggy. He looked down, po-faced. And then a very small, wry smile touched the corner of his mouth. And he sneaked another look and smile before he got off the tram!
It's official, Markus can win over the hearts of men and women, especially in today's stripy get up :-)

And I've just realise that yes, I usually always look in at babies in buggies or prams on the street, hehe
