Being a postie I'm out and about, meeting some of the various colourful characters this country has produced.
Here (almost verbatium) is the conversation I had today.
To make it simple I shall refer to the gentleman in question, as Nutter.

Nutter - I'm 1/2 way through my 66th year.
Me - Cool, you're looking good for it. (He didn't he looked like Compo)
Nutter - (pointing to a very old Toyota Supra) that's my 230mph racing sports car.
Me - Nice.
Nutter - I used to race Formula 3.
Me - Cool
Nutter - Yes I used to race Michael Schmacher
Me - Wow
Nutter - I was the only person to ever beat him.
Me - Were you?
Nutter - Oh yes, he always says, when we meet, 'you were the only person to ever take a win, from me'.
Me - You still see him then?
Nutter - Oh yes he sends me tickets to every European Grand Prix. I just jump on the underground, am I'm there.
Me - Well that's nice.
Nutter - Yes that's why I'm not here very often.
Me - Is it really?, anyway must dash, work to do, and all that, bye.

I could have talked all day.
It just goes to show how much fun you can have chatting to an old guy wearing a black bobble ski hat.

You seem to be a natural, have you ever thought of a change of career to Mental Health?

Perhaps I'm the nutter, cos you're going to have to explain that!.
I was merely passing on an amusing conversation that I had today.

It might not be exciting or drivel, just a chat, that made me smile.

NUTTER - Nice.

I wasn't trying to be funny or anything like that Stat...you engaged with someone who more than likely has some mental health issues in conversation, he felt happy to open up to you and share his view on the World, plus you gave him some time before going on your way!

Ah I see Gully, everyone else seems to be pointing out, there's a fine line between talking to the nutter, and being one.

Can't say I blame them!.

It has got me thinking, which message board is he on, opening up a thread, entitled:-
'You'll never guess what I got my postie to believe, today'.

Yes but clearly you're not a very clever postie or you'd be intercepting those bloody Grand Prix tickets!

:lol:

Okay I can see a few problems with this guys story. The main one though is that he had fooled. You though he was talking about Michael Schumacher.
