Oh all right then. Walking back from the paper shop this morning I spied our postman sauntering the other way. Up went his hand to his hat brim. What a gent I thought, preparing a non-committal smile. But no, it was just that his baseball hat was unaccountably on facing forwards and he wanted to move it to a more stylish sideways angle. I smiled anyway (hard to stop in mid smile). He ignored me. Ah London. I shan't miss you a bit.

(2.6.06 10:04) I'm always surprised that old people don't want to smile. Aren't they supposed to be isolated and lonely (at least some of them) - or old fashioned and friendly. Every time I walk past one in my neighbourhood I try to smile, but they don't want to know. As I say, it surprises me every time. |
