Inappropriately public conversations

often happen at the lake-by-the-ocean - my best swimspot. Maybe seeing the far horizon makes people feel so out in the wild that they become oblivious to all the other people around them.

Last week, two almost identical rows erupted at the edge of the lake, the first by little boys and the second by a middle-aged couple who were each telling the other, in very plain terms, that they didn't enjoy each other's company. These exchanges were by the entry steps queues formed as swimmers waited for the angry participants to either drown each other or go home.

Have the British lost their famous reserve? Have we become too European? Is this why we must Brexit?

  1. The middle aged couple sounded more like ten year olds!
    Maybe the steps are in a zone that makes people grumpy? Maybe the steps have some kind of dampening field around them?

    1. Of course, Lake needs it's Feng Shui attending to - I'll get some of those smudging sticks to perform an aura cleanse xx

  2. Sounds like a plan! But be careful..it's a public area and someone might report you for smoking.
