Probably not, there was very little crime then. I think there was one murder, during the whole of my childhood.

Re: I shall never understand Men

When my husband was gritting the steps he was wearing shorts and sandals, I think the years on the milk round addled his brain and affected his temperature gauges

Going back to postmen, I understand that the reason for shorts in wet weather is that it is more comfortable than wet trousers flapping round their legs!

Also you will find a lot of them wear shorts even in cold weather if they're getting in and out of vans all day as they get too hot inside the van.

There he was, little bare botty, on the beach in nothing but a swimming hat of all things, just heading into the sea for a swim!!
They said it was minus 5.

If the icy water caused a cardiac arrest, who is to blame?
Why should the rescue people have to risk their own lives to help a half-witted exhibitionist like that?

Has anyone seen a nude woman bathing in the sea today? NO.
Has anyone seen a postlady in shorts today? NO.

So why do men have to do these things?

I shall never understand men.


haha....yep, ive seen it Mups.....
i live in the next village to brighton, and my postmen and women, still wearing their shorts......actually, i just posted this on another thread ...lol....
AND ......there were 4 guys at the nudist beach , not sure if they had a dip, but 2 were females.......
