Title: Dozy Bint!
Post by: Andy B on 22 August 2016, 19:09:57
Not once or twice, but three bloody times!  :o  >:( >:(

Is a "comprehensive safety briefing" long for 'a bo11ocking'?  ::)

Some folk really shouldn't be allowed out alone!Sadly despite many weather warnings for the weekend just gone there have been tragic consequences in far too many instances,do people these days really lack so much common sense?

Every year, about this time there is a spate of seaside tragedies. It's as though people leave their brains behind when they go on holiday. This last week, Scotland, Cornwall, Wales people drowned etc. Mums and kids, dads and kids. I'm waiting for the one where someone gets chopped up by a jetski or speedboat. It almost always happens.

You must have met people?
I think the difference these days is that people have been conditioned that their oppswittery won't have any consequences.

Clearly either a retard, (in which case she shouldn't be on the beach unsupervised), or she's getting wet and salty* with the thought of being rescued by strong men. Cry for help etc.



*it's a beach... get your mind out the gutter!  :D

I was on Charmouth beach a couple of weeks ago here in West Dorset and the amount of people hacking away at the cliffs in search of fossils despite all the warning signs of unstable cliffs was shocking!  ::) 

The ones that really shocked me was a teenage lad digging away at the base of the cliff in a spot where the top hung over him.  His mother was doing the same about 15 feet away....  Surely candidates for the Darwin Award?  ???

Unfortunately people grow up never having been exposed to danger and learning how to deal with it. Probably the only ones that do have learned by playing truant and getting into mischief. The rest are so mollycoddled by parents frightened of bogeymen, and schools frightened of lawsuits and E&S. Result = reaching"kidulthood" with no concept of danger at all. As a youth I was let out to play after breakfast and left to my own devices. :( :y

I remember feeling ruddy terrified when I walked out into the actual real world aged 18. After my cotton wool cocoon it was a shock. Raised by parents who were the generation of eating mud and playing outside for 12 hours without any means of mobile communication. Strange.

Well yes. I would have been mortified if my children had done half of what I got up to as a kid

This topic came up on the radio this morning - about how kids now get ferried here, there and everywhere for the entire six week summer holiday, but how "in our day" you had a one week family holiday and for the other five you were left to fend for yourself.. even I (a very much indoor child!) remember going out in the morning and not coming home till dinner time; either to a friends house, out on our bikes..

When I think now where we used to go with no mobile phones - middle of rural Yorkshire, probably 5-10 miles from home on our bikes, two or three of us but otherwise alone.. fields, barns, mischief to get into. Kids these days will never know that kind of fun, I'm sure :(

But that would mean dressing for dinner in the early afternoon. Which is ridiculous  8)

I agree with Nick....

Breakfast in the morning
Luncheon around noon
Tea in the afternoon (about 3 or 4 o'clock) Cucumber sandwiches with a cup of TEA
Dinner in the evening. My butler never announces "tea is served" , ALWAYS "dinner is served"
