Walking towards me are two schoolgirls. They are giggling. One is wearing a blue blazer with tie askew. The other is wearing a small golden padded jacket. It is dark and raining. I stop them to ask my question.
'What's your middle name then?' asks the girl with the askew tie to her companion. Her tone has an accusatory air. The girl in the padded jacket smiles and gives me an answer. The other gives a high pitched scream of hilarity and runs down the pavement. I thank my middle name and let her catch up with her excitable friend.
