He said," your hair looks nice, have you had it cut?" I said "I had it done last week". And then after being led down a blind alley of conversation, I died, I became a ruddy clam. I don't get noticed. Well never in August anyway, In September I get noticed, by those who just remember having seen me, some place or other before, not recalling, where or when. Me neither I'm afraid to say, I see such an abundance of characters every day. A few stick in my mind, not many tho'. I'm never noticed beneath the full moon, that only seems to happen in June. In October, I get noticed by squirrel chaps, but,they're only hunting nuts, and I'm not one you know. So, To the chap, who commented on my hair, a smile, a thank you, "you're so kind to say, it looked a little better before it started going grey." I toddled back home on the crest of a wave, maybe, just maybe, I should have continued conversing, instead of just walking away. (c) LIVVI

Met a guy outside my local store and that was the story, maybe I should have carried on the chat!
