"What is your Xmas wish?"
"To have the time (off work) to visit my family in Poland"

As I ventured out this afternoon, I felt slightly under the weather. The cold was making my head ache even more so I decided to stay around indoor areas looking for a potential subject.

I thought a cup of tea would be suitably soothing so stopped at a stall in the market where I got chatting to the friendly Agatha here. She saw me trying to get as much out of the weak tea-bag she'd given me and asked if I wanted another.

"Yes please, can I have two?" (I like it strong)

Agatha is from Poland, and enjoys living and working in Leeds. I asked her if she had much time off work, and she said only the odd few days - she'll be working throughout the Xmas period. She has no family here which led me to ask about if she would get to see them (unfortunately not).

I wandered around a bit more, sipping my tea but it didn't make much difference to my head ache so I decided to head back, glad to have had one stranger interaction at least...
