When did you study in Southampton though? I left in 97. Jesters was a Turkey-shoot upto 97.
I was on this plane chatting to a lady when she invited back to her hotel in Malyasia... Then the second plane we bump into each other again but this time exchange phone numbers.
Years later, delete her number as I never called... bump into her again while visiting sports centre last weekend. Holy crap Batman.
Sat next to a drug cartel guy who asked me to carry his cigs for him...no!
and watched customs lead him away and then saw him on tv the next day.
Sat next my Managers son on airplane to New Zealand once -after he told me loads of funny stories and then went pale when I told him who I work for and where...lol (he kept on saying "please don't tell my Mum")
[i]cyclenaut off've here (and from back in the gofar days) is now living with a mate who i met through cycling. she also turned out to be best mates with a mate of mine from uni, she was living in the states at the time as well so even more of a coincidence. [/i]
I went all the way to Denver and then we drove over to Boulder, and she wasn't around that day!! 😉
Mine, isn't so small world as a bit weird. I was working in Germany and bumped into a lady in the canteen who looked very familiar. I looked at her for a while (which was no problem as she was a bit of a looker) and eventually placed her as being at a party of a friends a few months before. I went over to her and said hello, and it all made sense, she was English, she had been at Steve's party, yes, ooh it's lonley being in a different country isn't it? Yada Yada.
So the relationship went on for a week or so and it was only on my last day that we found out we'd never really met before, we'd both been to *a* Steve's party a few months before but completely different ones.
On a late flight back from Belgium to Leeds a fair few years ago I was reading a HiFi mag. Got drinking and talking to the chap next to me, we discussed buying some new gear. Only turns out that he was Julian Richer, of Richer Sounds.
About 7-8 years ago I got a call at 4am from a mate doing a project in Singapore - he was in a bar and had just bumped into one of our mates from College (1988-90). Tis indeed a small world at times.
I moved from Edinburgh into a house in Chorley 6 years ago and it transpired that my live-in landlord was on the same course at the same time as one my best mates back in Edinburgh. Both my mate and I agreed that my landlord was a ****! 😀
A long time ago my mum and dad and I were in Boston. My dad went off to get some food from a stall and discovered that the girl serving him was a student of his cousin in Sheffield.
I'm always bumping into people from Dumfries (home town), no matter how hard I try not to.
One of my aunts has shagged Ewan McGregor but that's more 'claim to fame' territory.
I went all the way to Denver and then we drove over to Boulder, and she wasn't around that day!!
you've lost me 😯
