hearing from an old schoolfriend

...what a lovely surprise

seeing family

especially when I see them so rarely

making her day

The lovely old lady stopped me (by putting her stick in front of me) to say how much she admired what I was wearing and how it made her day. Well she made mine also!

Hearing from an old friend

An old French friend.
It's been too long!

He loves me

The man in the cafe (formerly the kebab shop - clearly the evening clientele were getting a little too lively!) paused his bacon frying to come out into the street to tell me he loves me – that’s nice!
