Anyway as I was saying, in the woods a man over-took us and, as he passed, we exchanged pleasantries.
'Lovely day,' he said,
'Yes, beautiful.'
'A bit better than last week,' he continued as he sped past.
'Oh gosh yes, much better.'
Did you spot it? My last statement: I have absolutely no idea what the weather was like last weekend. And I immediately thought of Moss.
Let me tell you a bit about Moss. He is a character, played by Richard Ayoade, from a television sitcom called The IT Crowd. Moss and Roy are computer nerds who work in the basement of a large company. They are managed - loosely by Jen who knows nothing about IT - and the comedy's strength I think lies in the two main characters.
A typical - and very clever - nerd, Moss lives at home with his mum and never has a girlfriend but sometimes he likes to pretend that he's just one of the lads, so when the mailman comes in Moss engages him in football banter, fed to him by a computer program. (It would probably be an app on his phone these days.) Somehow as a result of sharing this with Roy they end up being invited to a football match with the lads.

Excellent idea, that you explained.
And THAT, is why, I put click-able links, in my posts.
Because on the world wide net, not everyone understands, regional stuff.
Hell, I put them in, for people in my own country! Who, depending on their inquisitiveness, don't necessarily know, what I am talking about, either. >,-)))
