That's passive-aggression. Not "nice."

No love. It is geographic.

We were taught to not say anything. Other groups have to tell people off. Where you're from you are right. Where I'm from, I am right.

Read a lot about full timers being drunk, crashing cars and carts, and knocking their wives /husbands about though, and that is all year round.

Some would seem to give the impression that becoming a full time villager gives mystical and superior powers over any from outside the bubble.

Funny old world!

Y'all should know by now that we Yankees love you Brits. If you want to throw your Tea Bag or your scoundrel son in law out of the cart, go right ahead. ;) I don't drink alcohol any more because I was never any good at it and I haven't knocked anyone about ever, but I do mumble to my self a lot.

Been here 7 years and look forward to snowbirds each season. Most of us were snowbirds at one time be it here or somewhere else first. Yes, things get more crowded and a few more gates get knocked down, and some one will eventually drive straight a roundabout... but let them enjoy their time here, come May all will be back to normal.
