Greetings of a stranger
I WAS waiting in the front of a shop in Dorchester on Xmas Eve, when a friend I know stopped to ask how I was.
“I am just waiting for my daughter who is in the shop” I replied.
However, this remark was greeted by a short elderly woman of who with a lovely smile said “ Well, I am Here”.
She then went into the shop with family or friends.
My friend and I were very touched by this greeting from a complete stranger and it added to our Xmas festivities in a nice friendly way.
