Random Snog #2
After I'd finished University I moved to another city and got a job. I didn't much like it - I didn't know anyone there and it was a pretty run-down, unfriendly sort of place. So imagine my surprise and joy when I ran into someone I knew in the high street - we'd both moved to the same place without knowing it! We arranged to meet in the pub that very night.

So I arrive at said pub looking forward to the first proper social outing in several weeks. I am early so I buy two beers (one for me, one for absent friend) and sit down.

The sight of a spare beer must do something to attract the deranged. As soon as I'd set it down a strange, bald man detached himself from the bar, walked over to me and gave me a big, smacking wet kiss on the forehead that lasted several seconds. As I sat, dumbfounded by a strange mixture of terror and surprise, he sat down opposite and started drinking the beer while chatting to me like I was his long-lost brother. I'd never seen the man before in my life.

My protestations that he was a complete stranger elicited more and more aggressive responses until half the pub were staring at us and I was becoming very scared. At which point the friend I was due to meet entered. Luckily for me he's a very large, intimidating man, quite different from my puny, weedy self. And as soon as he indicate the ownership of both seat and spare pint, my would be beau went on his way.
