Planes, Trains and Automobiles

This was my first social visit, and I went to see Mr R. He was a lovely gentleman, who was working on one of his cars when I arrived. He is keen on cars and shipbuilding and had just been sailing a remote-controlled boat he had made on a local lake. I had been nervous about whether we would have enough to talk about, but I needn't have worried, he was a great story-teller and we actually found we had quite a bit in common, even though I couldn't compete with him having met the Queen!
