You’re putting too much evidence and sense into this.

Stone beaches > Sand beaches IMO

(Possible 18 reply thread here for anyone who wants to pick it up and run with it)

This guy was from Catalonia, but he also thought Barcelona was crap, so I think there was no pleasing him.

When I said that I grew up not far from some lovely sandy beaches at Margate, Viking Bay, Broadstairs, etc and that Wales and Cornwall are full of them, he basically acted like I was exaggerating/they didn’t exist, and he didn’t have to visit them because he knew they were crap already.

It was not a relaxing conversation.

Well, you’ve got to do Communism right.

had a date say 3 years back. my last date, in fact.

I wasn’t really feeling it from the get-go. was massively hungover and was half seeing someone else. I went out of courtesy really.

I got there early and I saw her come into the pub. I couldn’t be assed at all, so I let her walk around the bar for 5 minutes or so, before acknowledging her. what a cunt…agreed!

she started telling me about all the things she didn’t like about guys - bad teeth, cheap shoes and such like. I was not feeling it at all, I could barely muster a word. I did notice her teeth weren’t all that, but let that one slide.

we ended up having a heated chat about some sort of magical TV box she claimed her dad had. I was having none of it, and kept saying ‘nah, I don’t think that is actually possible’ like an absolute turkey

we had 3 drinks - I bought them all, like a fucking mug.

we left together and she said something like ‘you’re a cool guy and funny, but you’re just too like my brother and dating a guy who is just like my brother would be wrong’

I agreed and walked home

dude! what the hell

Given this seems to be turning into something of a Kent-based beaches thread, what’s the deal with all the recent goings-on on the Kent coastline!? Those five people who died at Camber Sands, someone else went missing there the week after that, the Romney Hythe and Dymchurch railway had a derailment. It’s all going on!

Not a sand fan pal, enjoy lobbing a stone or three in a body of water though.

Yeah, I’ll take up the mantle

Lads, SSP. And that includes random comments about loving painful-on-bare-feet beaches.

Camber Sands is in East Sussex, obviously.

A sandy beach can be made pretty alright with a towel/blanket, a stone beach is just a bleak jagged hole in the world

I’m probably going to go to the beach where Robert Smith lives this afternoon. Maybe that’s why he lives there. (He has a big mansion, he doesn’t just lie on the stones feeling sad)

Imagine if he did though. Imagine if he did…

It looks like this, so it’s pretty easy to imagine.

That’s actually not half bad for a stone beach

Worst date I ever had was from the middle east - not sure where exactly. The moment I saw my date, I couldn’t wait to get my mouth on it. I’d never had anything like it before, but my more cultured mates had told me to try it. Oh yeah, it was gonna be sweet and sticky. We actually met at the supermarket, would you believe?? Classic place to pick up dates as it turns out. As soon as we got home I got my date stoned (what am I like?), and then I went straight in for some mouth action, but it was disgusting! Worst date ever.
My date’s name? Medjool
