I agree with everything you have all said don't know about the Paphos side of course but here defiantly ..... noooo:

But I have to say I love people watching my favourite place to do that is Paris (lucky Nick)  I love to sit in a café in Pigale  and watch every facet of life from the foreign tourist, to the locals going about their business , the clubbers young and old , people attending shows in Moulin Rogue and some of the seedier shows in the area ,  ladies of the night (and day) pedalling their wares and pimps escorting their girls round the various clubs....   

I absolutely love just sitting with a glass of collapso, coffee or some wonderful Parisian food  cloud9:     


Sounds like sitting outside Donatello's in The Lanes, Brighton, enjoying great Italian food and watching all that life offers going by. Some weird and wonderful sights, but everybody is smiling and happy  cloud9:

Sounds great not been to Brighton for many years  Thumbs:

I was there a week last Friday, met up with my youngest and three young grandkids. They'd turned the large square in the shopping centre into a massive beach. Kids were having a wow of a time and plenty of yummy mummies too  cloud9: ... but no bikinis. However, the downside was so many tattoos on show  noooo:

 :thumbsup: Shame about the tattoos tho but same everywhere sadly  noooo:

Sadly, and I hate saying it as it's been a very major part of my social activities over many decades, motorsport does seem to attract a large portion of the moronic side of those that we have to share oxygen with unfortunately.
Don't come across this breed of creature up in the 'ills and mountains, where most either just quietly go about enjoying a bit of excercise, peace and quiet, and are generally pleasant.
Have to agree that a fair number of those you see at Motorsport do seem to be from a different species that hopefully never breeds but then in my limited recent visits also see good numbers of  stunning totty attached to the sort of blokes you hated years ago when they could get girls just by looking.

People watching is imho one of the BIG pleasures, especially if you give them names like Mr and Mrs Road Accident (they used to live across the road from us) or play games like who can spot the most horrendously dressed person in Tescos.

Just try to avoid thinking that they are also watching you too, giving you names and scores
Well, whatever, nevermind

In later life, people watching loses its attraction. You eventually realise that, like TV, they are all repeats.  noooo:

Yes, and becomes increasingly depressing too.

WTF has our generation dragged into this werld I'm now asking (present company excluded from that obviously)

Totty watching isn't as enjoyable anymore either, as many of them are blue skinned now, with green orange or scarlet hair, accompanied by vast quantities of iron werk dotted all over their McShitles filled carcasses. sick2:

Did a week in Milton Keynes for a dialler course a few years back, spent most evenings either bombing down the dry ski slope or trying my hand at the climbing wall.  redface:
