This afternoon, when out for a walk in the countryside with 5 teenage boys, we wandered onto land that was not part of the public footpath. We were challenged by a lady shouting from the upstairs window of her house, who then gave us directions back to the path. It was getting quite dark and the light was on in the house, so the woman was silhouetted in the window. All I could tell was that she had blonde hair and was probably in her thirties.

As we walked back towards the van, the conversation revolved around that brief encounter with the lady in the window, with each of the lads added their own thoughts and interpretations of what she had been like. By the time we were all safely on our way home, everyone had agreed that the lady had been around 16 years old (the same age as them), incredibly attractive and had somehow in that brief conversation suggested that she might be both single and available!

It’s amazing how experience can be changed and adapted retrospectively in groups!
