This is a reprint from an entry written on Saturday, January 21, 2006.
At that moment I was working for my company in Zaandam (close to Amsterdam).
I was pleased with my job … and very pleased with …

Yesterday evening, before hitting the asphalt back home, I visited the AH store beneath the parking-lot, where these two young people, armed with a video-camera and blossoming smiles, tried to capture passers-by.
Normally I would prefer having my head chopped off before … errr … .
She didn’t have any pigtails, but … well … you know, there was a welcoming sight – countenance and appearance!
She did have that kind of ‘Lonneke Engel‘ pinnule and posture. Not at all that perfect, so perchance even more graceful!

Reflecting on the subject I told them I really wasn’t the man they wanted. They acceded this truth quickly enough but we kept chatting for a while – both guy and girl very relaxed, noticeably enjoying their little project.
They probably have wiped this Ugly Faustus Face already, for all that!

Thus to be filed under: pleasant encounters.
