I have many things that have remained as fond memories for me but the best was nearly two years ago when I was establishing myself in my locality and dressing 24/7. One hot day in the summer I was dressed in realy drab dirty clothes because of a pile of rubbish I had to take to the recycling depot. Coming back home I stopped off in my local shop to get a cold drink to take home. Mireille who I got on famously with and who always kissed and hugged me when I went, stopped dead in her tracks when she saw me! no hugs, no kisses, but still nice towards me. Why are you like this she asked of me and I told her why to get the reply " Well go home and put a skirt on, we are used to seeing you dressed as a woman", I did that and was met with smiles and "that's better " and of course the traditional French greeting on kissing on both cheeks continued every time I went in there.
