So, today, I had the opportunity to chat with a very lovely old lady whilst we were both waiting for the bus into our local town.

We talked about absolutely everything and nothing at the same time, if that makes sense?

She told me that she had been in the Land Army during WWII, and I didn't know what that was, so she explained all of it to me.

I found the whole entire experience to be so enlightening and refreshing.

Anyway, after having shopped around my local town centre for a good hour or so after getting off the bus, I then came across her wonderful face once more.....

Whilst she was being held up by a couple of young sales people that were working on the high street trying to get people to sign up for some sort of energy company.

She was obviously at the point of signing up to everything that they were trying their hardest to sell her when I instantly swept in and said:

"Hi, my name is .......... and it's so nice to meet you both! Anyway, this is actually my grandma, and if you wouldn't mind? I am just going to go on ahead and jump into this whole entire thing right here and just take her on ahead home with me? I'm certain that she's extremely interested in whatever proposal it is that you're making to her but I think that it's very safe to say that we'll be leaving this right where it is and will be going on about our way now? I hope that's ok with you?"

I swung her right around on her heels (her little shopping trolley in hand as well), and we walled towards the bus station.

I wasn't sure that what I had done was the best thing, but then she looked up at me with a huge grin on her face and said:

"Thank the Lord for you, you sweet little thing!! I really didn't want to do it, but then you came along, and you did all of it for me, didn't you?! Haha!!!I bloody hate those types of folk, but you can't be seen to be impolite or bad mannered really, can you?!"

So, we got the bus back home together whilst sharing a paper bag that was filled up to the brim with rhubarb & custard boiled sweets......

One of the best days of my life.

Just goes to show what you can learn about a person when you take the time to sit down and shut up and just listen, I think. ❤️

Anyway, her name is, 'Agnes' She is 92 years old. She's approximately 4 feet tall as well.

And she's genuinely the best human being that I've come across for quite some time now as well!!......

And I really hope that I bump into her again, at some point in the future too.....
