That if you were in Charmouth today and are a male above 13

[ThePosieParker]

building a damn that prevented small children from paddling in the estuary as you made it too deep one side and dry the other that you are a selfish twat that has no consideration for others?

Not only rough boys, who were rude to many Mums that intervened, but fully grown men organising the damn building.

Damn building is fine, it's a good activity, but then intimidating smaller children and mothers who wanted to remove the damns is shit. One builder, before lunch, did so and then would release the water swiftly with great excitement.

One father started shouting at me for removing one small damn that had been built and left for over ten minutes.

Then the rough boys came along and shouted at small children everytime they went near it.

Ruined lots of peoples' day, about four families left the beach altogether. .

Nothing indignant here....although it's not really AIBU as I know I'm not. It's more LMGTSOOMH (let me get this shit out of my head)

rough?does that include your arguing on beach

Yes but to think IABU you either have to be a bit stupid or rough!!

Joke, wind up and two small stellas funny.

I was quiet and no I was defending myself, can't imagine you being all quiet when a grown man starts shouting at you somehow.

is that a digression as no one agrees with you

elaborate on your mum being embarrassed by you
was it the arguing, the harrumphing - do share

who on earth are you addressing
and who is this we and bets of whom you speak
are you doing online bingo

Wow Posie, what's your problem? Scottish challenged you and you're calling her a drunk. That's really unpleasant.

The cheek of being male and over 13...... Don't they know that mums with toddlers rule any leisure activity :)

Here's a dam I made earlier!

I was at Charmouth two weeks ago. Isn't there a sign saying not to swim in the estuary part? I'm pretty sure there was.

YABU

Charmouth 'estuary' is a shit place to play in.Most localswalk past it to get to the beach

Next time go to West bay,it has sand there and everything....

Heh. "WHY won't EVERYONE agree with MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!1!

If you don't you must be rough/stupid/drunk."

Sheer class, OP...

You should have just gone to Lyme instead ;P, much better!!!

yeah lyme! london by the sea good suggestion Metal

Hey, I'm from the Charmouth area. The OP is not wrong about the rough kids...I used to be one of them! Sitting down there of a summers evening round a bonfire, chucking mahoosive rocks into the estuary and swigging out of bottles of White Lightning.

Yes really.

Have grown up now though.

This thread should be quite straightforward but it's lost me completely. I can't picture what was worth arguing about

YABU! Dams are great and my rough, ill brought up children AND husband love building them!

You are a bossy boots Posie.

Incidentally are you the same poster who approached a group of random nursery staff in Argos and 'suggested' how they might better ineract with the children?
Or are you the poster that called Social Services after seeing two kids walking to school together, but without an adult?

I know one of those posts was you....possibly both.

You ARE a meddlesome opinonated pain in the backside aren't you?
