    Smaller than going to the Cairngorms and meeting an American you met riding in California 😉 (Not me)

    or going to Orlando and go for a piss in a Disney park and a guy from work that I never knew was going to Orlando uses the urinal next to me.

    I was staying in the HI hostel in Banff, Canada and there was a girl from my office in Bournemouth staying in the same room.

    Later that year I moved to Leeds. The first weekend I was there the sister of one of my housemates came to stay, it was that girl again.

    What on Earth was Poddy doing in Lancaster??? 😯

    I hope he had had his inoculations…

    How about getting on a lift in Morzine only to hear “Mum! Mum! That guy works at my school”, followed by said mum getting in the same car?

    There can be noise sometimes, yes!

    That’s a good pic of me actually Simon, it’s rare I say that too. I hate pics of myself…. 🙂 But yeah, small world isn’t it?

    (You should get into portrait photography!)

    What on Earth was Poddy doing in Lancaster???

    Lunch break on the way back from Starcamp (Google it) in Keilder Forest.

    My 40th is Monday 18th October. I should try and organise a ride on Saturday I suppose…. Unless I can invite myself on someone elses? 🙂

    Might me in London Village on Sunday though……

    Already had one present – A days coaching with a certain Mr Jedi. (well a voucher, gotta book it)

    The mind boggles at the things you could do once your fingers were looped through his lughole holes..

    I had much the same scenario in the bustling metropolis of Monmouth while on an audax ride last year. V random.

    You want to be careful, I think sfb lurks under bridges 😉

    Anyway, Simon, I reckon your standards are slipping: You only got the camera out when Kirsty noticed you were carrying it, and then it wasn’t even turned on!

    Tsk. 😉

    Look at the pic. Have an educated guess! 😉

    I’ve just thought – Star Camp – weekend for cosmos gazing or gay talent contest?

    That IS a very good picture SFB! Can you make me look that good?

    Ha ha! How cruel and unkind, but it made me laugh and I think that’s all that matters really. 🙂

    and then it wasn’t even turned on!

    yes, very unusual, I’d turned it off while plugged into my PC the night before as it runs the battery down quite quickly. That’s the only time I ever turn it off. But also, in novel social settings I tend not to use my camera at first as it can be offputting 🙂

    Can you make me look that good?

    you’ll have to introduce yourself as I wouldn’t recognise you 🙂

    So who recognised who?

    I recognised Peter with some incredulity, and did wonder at first if he was blanking me 🙂

    That’s not nice. [sniff]
    I do, however, admit that I generally look like a startled shaved babboon on most photos, which is why I tend to take the pictures instead.

    Take PP, make an inch shorter and slightly (only slightly) thinner but more hair and no piercings/tattoos and you’ve got me.

    I only recognised Peter due to the presence of Kirsty! Blokes barely register on my retinas…
