Having met both Enid and Kevin and having found them both absolutely delightful I seriously doubt that Kevin’s “sinbathing� is synonymous with “skinny-dipping�.
I think its Enid’s shorthand for “Kevin’s out on the terrace contemplating his navel�. It’s got something to do with recharging one’s “blat fatteries�.

Think you might have a point ...Ive heard teenagers say this as well......I think the term "gay" has a different meaning for teenagers. My own teenagers call anything they don't like/want to do/are annoyed with, "Gay". I think it's the in "insult at the moment.
I remember when 'Gay' used to be happy........
As Ive mentioned on another thread my youngest whos inherited most of her mothers traits[and added some]
When told that a male friend of ours had a male partner[in his business] said.... Oh I didnt know he was Gay...[he isnt]
So I suppose partner doesnt mean what it used to either......

That's great Alan - did you create that expression?! Contemplating my navel involves a certain amount of recharging blat fatteries too!

Nostalgia isn't what it used to be
