Identity

I spent the bus trip into work this morning chatting with an Englishman who lives in the same tower as me. He joined the same lift, we walked to the stop, talked about his recent travel and work, his upcoming visit to the Malaysian Grand Prix, his wife Nicky's weekend visits to Manilla and Hanoi, his kids, my kids, my upcoming work travel, his in-laws visiting, my folks and in-laws visiting. We talked the whole journey into town just as we have many times before.

I still have no idea what his name is.

Of course not - you haven't been properly introduced.

I know what you mean. There are quite a few of my son's friends' parents who I know reasonably well without knowing their names (though I also have to admit that I forget people's names even after I've been told them). It seems to work out OK, fortunately.

Except when the person is your boss and you have to introduce him (or her).....

Umm. Lets see. This is my boss. Boss this is a bloke I know.
