Lunchtime at work.. if I’m just working from home then I work right next to a busy shopping centre.. and sometimes I like to just sit in my car with my sandwich, or smoking and watching the world go by for an hour.

I sit on the sofa in a corner of a coffee shop that has a window. Or if im needing more excitement I go to a Wetherspoons

People watching in Wetherspoons is like going to a free zoo.

Some spoons are worse than others, Manchester Piccadilly and Sheffield bankers draft spoons both have some very “interesting” clientele

McDonald's. Look at modern day slavery take its toll, as well as the arsey customers who ask why the other lane wasn't served first when that's due to poor design by the developers.

There aren't innocent, non-creepy ways of doing this.

Depends if you're people watching as a group or fix your attention on someone of the opposite gender.

There absolutely are. It is fine to watch the world (and subsequently people) go by.

This is one of the reasons my dad doesn’t mind waiting in hospitals. He loves to people watch. Probably best not to just rock up though, injure your family so you have a reason to visit!

I don't like people watching and I've never understood it, this is was a great indicator of being acoustic for me.

Back in my childhood town is one of my favourite pubs, right by a roundabout where the main high street goes over. Dad and I used to sit there with a couple of pints, watching the traffic.

I find myself doing it waiting at for a train on the platform, almost missed the train a couple times, usually it rolls into 5-10 mins of day dreaming 😂

On my morning walk before work (6.15 - 6.40). I see all kinds of people like workers walking to walk, old people presumably getting a physical newspaper (beet guess) and more

What is beet guess?

It's when I consult the beetroot in my fridge like it's a magic 8 ball

Upstairs at Wetherspoons in Falmouth. Can watch the streets. Or the window upstairs in Lounges.

Please tell me you make up wild stories about some of the more memorable people you see. I do, I've had way too many international spies go past.
