I like your use of the word "YAWP". I don't think I've heard it since last I saw the movie Dead Poets Society. Robin Williams made so many good movies.

As Ciel has already observed - you really convey the atmosphere of that place very well! But someone should have a chat with that Bobbie...

The humidity and early-day warmth... the unclear audio because of the forgotten hearing-aids... Bobbie's persistant but unchallenged defiance of the free-bread guidelines... The dozing Bingo guy... Everything you write here creates such an atmosphere of muzziness, of unconcentration, ungroundedness... I feel like I'm right there, observing like a dreamer. Really evocative writing!
