The Young Men with Matching Sweaters

I went into my computer place today to buy a printer. The man that helps me, M.,  speaks English very well. We speak a little French, but for the computer, I have to get to the point and the point entails me speaking in English at this moment. We started on the transaction when his co-worker arrives for work. This is the poor man that got a good shock all the way to the top of his head fixing something of mine. He takes off his scarf and coat and gets to work. I realized that the two of them were smiling at each other and then it hit me...they had the same sweaters on. They were big chunky sailor like sweaters with big buttons and a stiff collar. I said "Hey! you both have the same sweaters on....Did you know? Did you plan it? M. my guy, said no....we didn't. It just happened that way. They were both embarrassed but it was very cute. M.'s Father gave him his for Xmas, The other guy's sister gave his to him for last Xmas.
I like M very much. He has helped me a few times. Today he explained the gas situation for me at the Supermarche. I had given up yesterday when I was having trouble with my credit cards. I wanted to ask him about the phone too, but there is no reason for me to go back in there. I have his email address though.
