Hi Eternity and welcome.
I always go by myself (Arthur no mates). Know how you feel but to be honest 99% of the time people are not that interested in what you are doing. I find if they are most are friendly and want to talk about photography. As for thinking you are silly people will think what they want to think. If they don't know you or what you are trying to do then thay are the ones being silly, by thinking you are. Just have fun, enjoy and please yourself.
If anyone says "that is a silly thing to photograph" Say something like, "yes it is but I just sold the last one like this for £500". Not that I think they will say anything.
