A brilliant moment on the bus this morning. A middle-aged lady trod on another, younger woman's toe (she was wearing open-toe sandals). The woman winced in agony.
The woman, quite posh, was profuse in her apologies, but then could not help being quite precise in what she was apologising for.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry...I'm a doctor and I always tell my patients to go on public transport in appropriate shoes. I always tell them that. I am sorry."
I can report that the woman felt very comforted by those soothing words, and will no doubt not go on a bus in inappropriate footwear again.
