10K for the RSPCA by warriorgrrl

Sadly not the warm lapping of the ocean off the beaches of Jamaica where I started off the year, but the chlorinated splashings of a hefty man with a messy backstroke in my local pool this morning. Luckily I've got serious with my swimming lately and have been wearing a nose clip along with my trusty Zoggs so suffered no adverse effects.

Afterwards a Rubenesque lady wandered leisurely up and down the changing room butt naked. She didn't seem to have any purpose to her striding and wasn't even holding a towel, just looking round benignly smiling. I'm no prude but it seemed quite weird.

On the way home I popped in to the supermarket to buy some cereal and grabbed some wine as a friend's coming over tonight after work. At the checkout a girl considerably younger than myself told me I wasn't old enough to buy alcohol and called her supervisor over to 'deal with me'. I explained that I didn't carry a passport with me but I'd happily show her the flat up the road that I rent on my own - that didn't go down well. As I left with my non-alcoholic groceries I shouted "I'd better get off to school now!" and laughed. Perhaps I am turning in to one of those nutters you see about the place.
