Unexpected Good Fortune
Travelling through Seattle a good 15 years ago, I remembered an old friend I used to blow up Action Men with. We were bored, nothing to lose , so I looked him up in the phonebook. He was the only one of that name in there. "Come and stay," goes he.
Me and my mates were living in a car at that point so a bed was a novelty. After searching for a while, we rock up to a very posh mansion on Puget Sound with its own Helipad. "Come flying," goes he.
Has your luck held out recently?

Lotto Luck can be shortlived ...
Apologies if this turns out to be an Urban Myth from our office as I didn't see it first hand ...
When I started with Auntie I was invited to join the Departmental Lottery Syndicate. I was then related a tale of how sometimes numbers CAN come up. Our colleagues in Studios ALSO ran a syndicate for all the Camera Ops and Floor Crew in the Lottery studio.
Apparently they were somewhat peeved when all six of their numbers came up in a draw.
It was during a rehearsal not the real one!!!
