Blazing Minds

It’s quite amazing how many “lobsters” you see out on the beach and roads when the sun comes out!

No I don’t mean the one pictured, I mean, those type of people that sunburn to a lobster colour!

Living so near to the beach and during half term for the kids or when the main holiday seasons start, there are some truly terrifying sites to be seen when driving up the local coast road, past all the holiday camps, yes I know people have to go on holiday, but surely they should take care of their skin or even dress in a suitable manner.

Usually all you can see as you drive along are a wash of middle aged men in a pair of shorts only, with a HUGE belly hanging out of the the top of the shirts and as red as a “lobster” usually in toe with 4-5 kids which look like they were born one every 10-11 months and a wife that is so skinny and chain smoking while pushing a buggy along.

I mean, come on, just because you’ve gone on holiday do you have to show off your blubber to everyone, or do they do that at home as well, hmmm maybe.

Yes, I know before anyone starts that this is normal in the UK for the “lobsters” to roam the streets, with stacks of kids in toe, but YUCK!!!

There would of been a photo, but I politely asked a man if I could take his photo for a local blog which I write, this one and he replied “R A Our Kid, if you give us a tenner you can ‘ave me kids”, shivers went down my spine at this point and I replied, “If your children are only worth £10 to you then what is the world coming to!” at which point he pulled out a can of Tennants larger from his childs changing bag and walked off, seriously, what is the world coming to.
