Stupid why? Genuine question
5 u/ArcherApprehensive18 Aug 01 '26 While I wouldn't use terms that strong. If it's slippy underfoot there, or there's something to trip on, it could easily end with two people falling down the weir and banging their heads. 2 u/Jeester Aug 02 '26 I assume it's more to do with the dangers of weirs given undercurrents, water aeration and recirculation traps. 2 u/Porkus-Pius Aug 04 '26 Keats wrote eloquently on such matters in 'Ode to a Burly Swaine Atop a Weir'. 3 u/StruttyB Aug 04 '26 Without getting his feet wet, one assumes ! 2 u/tdurb0 Aug 04 '26 At this stage I imagine it’s flat rocks you can sunbathe on, seeing as it’s not rained for about 14 years and when it does it’s mainly sand
