Peace and quiet?

 I'm wondering what peace and quiet feels like.  See the thing is I don't get much of it.  From the time I get up to the time I go to be I'm more or less with people all the time.  

I've been trying to do some videos for ages, but no matter where I go within a few minutes I'll get disturbed, either by dog walkers, or more often passing loonies.

The thing is sometimes a person likes to be alone, a bit of thinking time, a chance to chill out in peace, without making inane conversation for the sake of it.

Now I've said this before, I'm not anti social, I'll chat to anyone, but sometimes I just want to be alone, and it's getting harder and harder to find a place where a person will be left alone.

Maybe it's time for town and cities to have a "quiet space" an area with lots of benches, but no talking, somewhere a person can sit and be left alone in peace.

Town centers used to be fairly busy, but people mostly ignored each other, these days if it's not nutters coming up to say hello, it's PITA sales people bothering shoppers.  

Note to street sales people. READ the street traders consent notice, the conditions normally forbid you going onto passers by and stopping them.  That's a condition.  As is displaying the notice of consent.

So pretty please, if you see a Wayne out and about and your not one of my mates, leave me alone, please.
