And then he stared at us - from about 1 ft away. He then got onto the bus with me, and sat next to me, almost leaning into me - I had my headphones on and turned right away from him and ignored him. Then he got off at the same stop as me (though I'd walked up the other end of the bus to get off), and I saw him staring intently into a shop window... I set off as fast as I could and turned a couple of corners, then made a big show of checking to cross the road so as to look back to see if he was there, but I'd lost him. I called my friend when I'd got home, and she'd thought he was very strange too. Still not 100% sure if he was following me, or if it was just a coincidence... but it did unnerve me, despite the fact that he was very small and skinny, and I could probably have squashed him with my thumb!
