Today I bumped into a very nice chap whom I would have to guess probably had Parkinsons.
I carried on my conversion as I would with anyone i met, as a fellow human being.
In the course of the conversion we talked about the nearby trees. I picked up a fir cone and said
"what trees are these then"
"fir trees" he replied.
And we carried on chatting.
He didn't say you nit did you fall out of that tree! I did wonder a little later if I should go back to school, but it's just my memory letting me down at that moment.
Just a funny snippet into my world
