Noise in a quiet place.

I took a post-jentacular dander this morning, around 8 o’clock and the peace of the bucolic pastureland through which I wandered was shattered and spoiled by two chattering women. From no less that 200 metres I could hear their inane chit chat breathed out like a crackling bushfire, drifting across the silent fields.
Their conversation, if it can be referred to as such, was utterly lacking in interest, nothing more than a series of disconnected banalities issued at high volume. They were communicating as if they were in a rowdy night club where they needed to compete with other rowdies and irritating boom boom music.
Why can’t people just have a quiet chat?

@fleura Have you ever been tempted to grab someone’s phone and chuck it under a passing car? In the early days of mobiles I saw a young rogue sneak up behind an elderly lady talking loudly into her phone and shout very rude words into her phone!
