The man of the house is the one I am closest to - and I really do respect him and his achievements - and his opinions. Our conversation was as usual amicable - and enjoyable. No fishhooks to speak of.
However - in the course of the discussion through the few hours we were there - he made a comment - or perhaps a statement - that shocked me to the core - and I'm sure that as he made it he knew - that knowing me - it was going to have an impact on my state of mind.
