On the way:
Slim, primary colours of red fading to yellow and back to red, simple illustrations, that's a children's book he's reading, mouthing the words quietly to himself as he sits in the back of the bus.
He's a gentle-looking man with a warm chocolate complexion and inquiring eyes; and while the hair is thinning off the top of his head, retreating from a generous forehead, a thin beard has emerged on his cheeks and chin.
He sensibly snug in a brown jersey with narrow, orange, horizontal stripes and jeans, and between his feet, in brown trainers with velcro straps, is the stationer's bag that contained the book.
The book lifted for a moment, its Spanish Phrases for Kids. It's all making sense now.
Anyone know the the Spanish for, "Good on you, mate"?
