Hi,

Vanessa and I just went out for lunch as it's her birthday on Monday and she's off to New York then. We had a nice lunch just round the corner from the office. When we were leaving, Vanessa popped in to the bathroom and a gentleman came up to me and asked me where I had got my red hair from. I said "my parents". He then asked where they were from and before I knew it he was telling me that he thought my tribe had sent out troops across the world 5000 years ago to conquer the world and that you (I think he meant the whole redhead population around the world) have dominant genes and good on us. I was a bit stuck for words and when Vanessa came out and asked what we had been talking about I didnt really know where to start. He was very nice though and was very complimentary and kind, just a teeny bit odd.
