Me, a woman then in her thirties, with a short dark bobbed hairstyle, baby bangs, a lace-collared floral dress, cardigan, and quite a serious expression. (In the background, a framed Tindersticks poster which has hung in my various bathrooms since 1997 and is hanging outside my current bathroom even now.)
Held the door for someone today and she said MERCI! in a thick Liverpudlian accent.
