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?

It only took two bloody years...
I play Badminton regularly with a couple of guys who are quite a bit better than me. Regularly get beaten with only half their score etc. In two years I had never won a single game. Including earlier this week.
Anyway, last night we played again and for the first time ever I beat them both, consecutively.
That felt good but was rather unexpected.
