Introduction Manners
The following is from my favorite manners book which is: "The Family Book of Manners" by Hermine Hartley and illustrated by Al Hartley.
"Sometimes we will meet someone we haven't seen for a long time. We may not remember them, and they may not remember us. This could be an awkward situation.
When this happens, we just say,
"Sometimes we will meet someone we haven't seen for a long time. We may not remember them, and they may not remember us. This could be an awkward situation.
When this happens, we just say,
"Hello, I'm Jane Brown. It's nice to see you again." It's best not to say, "Remember me?" If they don't remember us, our question would place them in an embarrassing position.
Good manners are always considerate
They release tension"
Good manners are always considerate
They release tension"
So with this in mind: Hello, I am Valerie Osborne. It's nice to 'see' you again!"
Don't you feel better, I feel the tension floating away ahhhh.... Until next time my friend(s).

Valerie, I'm going back to Ontario for 4 months, please don't forget me!
Although, whether or not you forget me, I'm pretty sure I could come up with a way of making any situation awkward anyway :)

Dear Valerie,
Hi! Just wanted to leave a quick note to say, "Hi!" I was searching the web for myself today and found you! Yeah, it's a long story, but not one I want to add to your blog commentary! Have a great day!
