Justin Bieber sneaks into Town

Mark and Shiela came in late in the afternoon saying the rumour was that Justin Bieber had returned to his home town, Stratford and had been spotted at the mall. Mark and Justin were in the same class at school when they were about 13 or 14, long before Justin became the idol he is today.

They went into town for supper and came back at about 8pm with the news they had seen Justin and Mark had spoken to him, asking if he remembered him and Justin said "Yeah, you the guy from Africa." (My note: It is amazing how many north Americans don't seem to distinguish between the continent of Africa and the country  South Africa.)
Anyway, after a short chat and Justin refusing a photo with Mark (he was on holiday, the photo thing was what he did as a job!!!!! - or so he told Mark when he asked) Mark invited him to the house, asking if he remembered where it was, just in case. Justin did remember, the house on the corner in the circle. Good memory, as he had been to visit when he was at school to jump on the trampoline in the back yard. My sister even had a brief meeting with
Justin's mother as she came in through the garage to fetch her teenage son from playing with his school friends.
Well, as expected, Justin didn't come round for tea, or coffee or drinks or what ever. I suppose his excuse was he was on holiday....
