The link merely confirms that there is a Penguin book called Spot goes to the beach. It shows the cover illustration of a dog and a penguin with their surfboards. I doubt it contains anything at all in the scatological department.
I've never used the word scatological before and had to look it up. Thank heavens I never used it in casual conversation. I got the word 'sod' (of earth) mixed up with turd as a teenager, I expect 'turf' was on my mind. A good example of scatology? Dog poo in beaches is pretty horrid. As is human poo both raw and in sewage.

I think the question needs to be asked, is it a playground or a playhound? Dogs are always allowed in the latter I'm pretty sure.

Nice .... takes me back to the 70s as a kid, doing the long jump into the sand pit at school during PE... usually a mine field of chod, teachers had to rake it before a lesson just incase due to dog walkers on the sports ground over the weekend. But sometimes they missed a lurking richard ... happy days.

    • He/she followed me and my friends quite a long way along the road so we worried they might be out of their catchment area. Quite dusty paws which also made me think perhaps they’d been roaming away from home for a few days. Took photos in case anyone is missing them! Very pretty, friendly long-haired black and white cat, leopard print collar, pink paw-print metal tag. They eventually stopped following us across the road from Mrs Robinson.
    • I took it to mean that he was going to present all sides of the argument (for want of a better term) rather than just giving his own opinion. I didn't take it to mean that he was calling "his own views" balanced.
    • I just did this survey. There are a number of problems with it. For example, in at least two questions you have an option "other, please specify" but there is no way to specify what the "other" is. Also, you have several questions where if you have nothing appropriate to answer, you get a statement "this is a required question", or words to that effect, so you have to put in something like "nothing" in order to move on. Can I suggest that this is likely to confuse people so they just give up half way through? Maybe you should test it out on a few people before going "live" with it?
    • I went to Brockwell Lido on a hot day last summer to do some lengths. It was busy.  I kept getting other people's hair, which was floating around the pool, tangled in my hands. It was gross. I'm not sure if that was unusual, or if it's always like that on a hot day.
