Stranger #67 - Bernie

On a rare, hot Sunday afternoon, I spotted Bernie waiting for a bus in Newcastle.

 

He looked incredibly smart from top to toe, and I had to find out why.

 

Turns out that Bernie is a preacher. He preaches in 3 churches on a Sunday and was en route to his next church.

 

We had such a good chat. Originally from Holland, Bernie is a born again Christian - finding God after (in his words) his 'war' ie. personal struggles.

 

We also had a great discussion about the recent EU referendum result, and put the whole world right. :)

 

Thank you for your time today Bernie, it was lovely meeting you, and I enjoyed our conversation. I hope you find the photo!
