We were in the Tesco, checking out the discounted section in refrigerated goods. You had white hair and a camouflage jacket. You shared a laugh with us.

Then we passed you again in the eggs and sugar section. Your Cockney tones rose high above my head to debate Biden’s possession of papers with a store stocker.
