I took a flight this morning and was sitting beside this girl in her mid-twenties. We shared a grimace about the too-loud announcements and a chuckle about us both having brought sandwiches from home for the flight. Haha, we went. Then I decided to have a look at the newspaper and she took out ..................a colouring book!
WTF!
It wasn"t like a child"s one either - it was a compact A6 booklet which seemed to be aimed at adults and she was using fine-tipped markers. But it was still a flipping colouring book. Checking on the Internet, I find that adult colouring books are now a thing.
This is what we have become. In a world of boybands, frappacinos, Kardashians and WAGs, we have reached a new low where adults are doing colouring books.
I have to admit that she did colour some lovely flowers though.
