-Can I help you with anything, sir? -Hi, yeah, I'm looking for a bottle of champagne. A good one. -Hmm, well, these are all excellent vintages, sir. -Oh, it's not really my area, what do you suggest? -Well, you cannot possibly go wrong, but if you'd like my personal recommendation.. -..Hmm? -This last one on the list is a favourite of mine. It is, you might in fact say, like a face from the past. -Great, I'll have that one, please. -It is familiar, but with a quality of surprise! -Well, surprise me. -I'm certainly endeavouring to, sir. ... -Sir, you'll find this vintage exceptionally to your liking. It has all the qualities of the old with the colout of the new. -No, sorry, not now, please. -Like a gaze from the crowd of strangers, suddenly one is aware of staring into a face of an old friend.
