Oh dear
Boater shows up and asks what to do.
Where are you going?
Chesterfield
Um, that’s the other way.
Where are we?
I show him on his map.
Well, we want to go this way!! We only bought the boat yesterday so we don’t know what we’re doing. Can you help us through the lock?
That’s why I’m here.
They enter the lock
They immediately do something that endangers their boat and may result in a drowning.
I stop them. I politely explain why and show them what to do.
He says, I don’t like your attitude. Don’t tell me what to do.
His three big mates appear

I say I am trying to help
We don’t need it!
Standard instructions come into play.
I say, Fine, do it yourself. I’m leaving.
I leave in my car.
