Surprise message saying “seeing my friend always makes me smile” brings a smile itself.

My lovely friend Mike sent me a message out of the blue: “I drive down the main road about 10.15 every Weds and I invariably drive past you walking. I never beep, I don’t want to make you jump or alarm other drivers, but seeing my friend always makes me smile.”

I am on my way to my aerobics class on a Weds and I had no idea Mike goes by. I don’t recognise cars, but it was a lovely message to receive and really made me smile.
