Was on the Cambridge to Kings Cross train last week. Sitting at a group of four seats a chap gets on and sits opposite.
I tend to smile/say hello to people who sit with/near me, maybe a bit weird but a pleasantry costs nothing. He smiles back and gets on with some phone calls and reading some papers.
Something inside says 'I know your face' and I'm trying to peep over my copy of the Metro in a subtle way to try and remember who he is, by Finsbury Park the penny dropped.
Anyway, he must have clocked all along that I was trying to work out who he was, because the moment I recalled, he looked up grinned and says quietly 'Yes I am'
I feel a bit foolish by now, but he was really friendly, saw the work logo on my fleece and asked what I did in London. Fair play to him, he made an effort to be interested
and when he got up to get off the train, he smiled and said was nice to meet you.
Was John Sessions.
