Silly question

I arranged to meet André for a drink in between my two Reuters careers when I had no thought of ever coming back. I opened the conversation by saying “I’d just like to ask you a silly question relating to my Reuter career, before we drink the wine and talk of other things”. As we started the second bottle he said to me “Let me ask you a silly question. Would you like to come back to Reuters?” I couldn’t believe my luck. Thanks for the memory, André. ■
