Michael was having the wrap of the day and a cappuccino in a swish McD in Tallinn, that jewel of the Baltic, when he was joined by the local bag lady who engaged him in a meal time mime.

As she moved closer negotiating with her cold chips and soggy salad Michael shifted on his seat looking around the crowded room as staff passed by unconcerned. Why had she chosen him?

He decided to leave some of his fries and drink. She was so pleased she pushed her offering in return. Done deal.

Refreshed he sought out the medieval architecture.

    Thank you. It was an amazing experience. Unexpected in a beautiful city. I hope it’s not next on Putin’s list.
