Will She Ever Stop Talking?

By lifesnapper  
Hi all and many thanks for your response to my previous upload, very much appreciated as always.Smile

The scene in today's image made me smile. The woman on the left just never gave the old lady on the right, a chance to get a word in edgeways. The poor old dear simply nodded and shock her head at the appropriate times. (I wouldn't want her on my doorstep preaching to me.) Wink
And I'm sure that the old lady must've thought to herself: 'Peace - When?'

Over the next couple of day's I shall be working on images taken at yesterday's Medway Pride event. I was a little nervous about it as I'd never photographed such an event before and didn't entirely know what to expect or how I would feel about it. However; once It all started I just carried on and did my usual thing without too much sensitivity going on, and totally enjoyed it. Dave (jasper87) told me that I would be in my element. He was right...

All the best to all and have a jolly good Silly Sunday.

John Smile

I once made the mistake of engaging in conversation with one of them. I say conversation but ....................

The old lady is harking back to 1938….Neville Chamberlain got it right with his ‘peace in our time’ speech.

I'd say that the woman has to be related to the one in Dve's shot today!
It's an invasion!
Wonderfully seen and shot John!

She's only sitting there for the free shade. Once the sun pops behind a cloud
she'll be out of there SmileSmile

Excellent candid shot recording the unfortunate verbal bombardment by the younger woman. Sadly it happened to we wrinklies all the time.
