A Jaded Response.

During the old photography days I went to take some pictures at Norham Castle in Northumberland. The only other visitor was a young woman who evidently liked poking about in old castles, and as we walked in tandem along the tops of two bits of broken mediaeval wall I said:

‘Bit like The Famous Five, isn’t it?’

She looked at me in that way young women do so very well when they’ve decided that all men are stupid and the one in close proximity just proved it. She said:

‘No.’

And I never saw her again.
