It's great when you can show the young ones how it's done. A few years back, I think I was 40 ish we arranged a large kayaking and camping trip in Cornwall. There were 2 17 year oldswho asked me to go to the shop with them to buy some beer.
So we got the beer and were driving through this little town and the lad in the back starts taking the piss calling me an old bastard because I wasn't chilling with my arm out of the window whilst driving through this surf town.
I'm sorry but that was game on, I wound the window down, climbed out and struck a surf pose on the bonnet then went over the car and knocked on the rear window where Mr piss taking was sat.
The pair of them were gob smacked that someone the age of their dad's would do such a thing.
Kids think they are being cool and edgy but we have done it all and probably more before, easier back then too. Far less cameras about to capture the evidence.
