    So what did you actually say to open the conversation?

    Did they recognise you, did you explain who you were?

    And most importantly............... were they fit? ;)
  • I think you did the right thing. I hope they took your advice in the spirit it was intended!

    PS - Hope you had a nice holiday after the frustrating start at the airport! :0
  • You should carry some MSE business cards and dish 'em out! ;)

    And as nelly says, were they fit? :D

    I wouldn't have been able to resist either. Definitely the right thing to do.
