Thanks for your comment! :) Yes, that would make sense to me… I read it that way that the ban pointed distinctively to the pool itself – and I have to admit my interpretation was born from a high-percentage booze night so I wouldn´t insist on it´s verity. ;)

Yes, I think it must be something like that… X)

I´m afraid that now and then I feel an urge to lift the lid and blow a dozen shiny soap bubbles over all the heavy fatefulness. As much as I love the book, it was written in a different time. A time of war and looming death, of course, but also a time of dusty traditions and century-old “Because that´s the way we always did it”. Nowadays (which is only sixty years later. Dude, how swiftly time flies!) some ideas (particularly regarding war, honour, female roles) seem a little bit out-of-date to me. As Terry Pratchett once wrote: “Just because somebody´s able to work his way through a thorny thicket and kiss a sleeping princess that doesn´t mean he will make a good king.”
Indeed, teasing is a sign of affection. X)
