Joyless Clevedon

Sometimes I take a drive to Clevedon in North Somerset because they have a fantastic marine lake which naturally fills up at high tide. The water is typically a few feet deep at the edge, so is nice for a wade as well as a shallow swim. The water gets deeper as you move to the seawall, getting to eight feet deep.
I have had a few occasions where people have wanted to talk to me about my mental health, and I have had to fend them off with "I'm fine but thank you for your concern." At one time something like swimming fully clothed was seen as unusual but harmless. Now everybody wants to send you off to a mental health professional! How did we become so joyless?
I will be going there tonight for a splash. I am wearing Incerun baggy black trousers with three pleats each side, a black t-shirt, black sweatshirt and trainers. I will go after dark so I can be a bit discreet and hopefully avoid a soothing talking to!
