Why can't I find a doctor who will prescribe "sea air" for my nerves so I can spend a summer in a picturesque costal town in England "for my health" only to be caught up in a local scandal and forced to solve a murder?

“Small picturesque town in the Cotswolds has highest per capita murder rate in the world. Kindly old priest suspiciously involved in all of them.”

[grouchox@freeradical.zone]

@MostlyHarmless what if it's the "fall-in-love-with-the-local-doctor" kind of place?

[queenofnewyork@newsie.social]

@MostlyHarmless This sounds amazing. Doctors these days just don't have their patients' best interest at heart!

[sasutina13@lgbtqia.space]

@MostlyHarmless Yes! This! Or France. (as long as it's not Brighton.)

@MostlyHarmless You'd think it exotic, and maybe glamorous, but it sure sounds like a lot of work:

"This is the story of a con man who couldn't stop lying. A tale of murder, stolen identities, fine art, a diaper stuffed with gold bars, and a crime solved by a Rolex watch. From rural Canada to coastal England, he lied and deceived at every turn."

It was a good podcast series:

@MostlyHarmless I mean... Is that so much to ask for!? Just a little murder mystery to calm the nerves.

@MostlyHarmless Is your real name Jessica?

@MostlyHarmless
The best part is making your way to the island on the sea tractor. Unfortunately you are also required to eat Poirot's diet.

[danlyke@researchbuzz.masto.host]

@MostlyHarmless sometimes you've gotta make your own murders...

[darkphoenix@universeodon.com]

@MostlyHarmless sounds like a Agatha Christie/Hercule Poirot movie...

@MostlyHarmless Sure! Just fill out this survey.

I would like to play the following role:

[backfromthedud@mas.to]

@MostlyHarmless because your life wasn't written by Agatha Christie, probably.

@MostlyHarmless

Come to #Hamilton! Maybe not the Cotswolds but still quite lovely.

@MissConstrue @MostlyHarmless @futurebird I feel like getting a doctor to prescribe it is easy. It's getting insurance to cover it that's the challenge.

[vocumsineratio@hachyderm.io]

@MostlyHarmless

Because those doctors are "out of network".

[hamonwry@mastodon.world]

@MostlyHarmless

Indeed 🧐

[agturcz@circumstances.run]

@MostlyHarmless You can always have some memory loss and spend a week or two incognito in Harrogate.

[blogdiva@mastodon.social]

@MostlyHarmless aaaaaah… so you too re-watch old episodes of Poirot just for the scenery. am in great company then 🧐

[aisling@anarres.family]

@MostlyHarmless @alice you might find it's a more gritty tv murder drama than you were expecting https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/inequalities/2024/04/03/the-plight-of-english-seaside-towns/

[joejoetom@famichiki.jp]

@MostlyHarmless You do not 'ave to go to ze picturesque coastal town, mon ami, for every-wair zair is evil under ze sun.
