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?

Woo!
After a spectacular cock-up my company had overpaid me for some time which resulted in me having to pay them back, rinsing my savings and my Christmas present fund.
During the next resentment-filled shift in work, I discovered there was an incentive running. A few sales and scratchcards later, I win a £60! Woo! That afternoon I won several more scratchcards and one offered me a choice- Nintendo DS or £100. Being the sensible sort I chose the DS. I won a couple more tenners and lo and behold another DS/hundred quid option!
My Christmas fund is now plentiful and I have a DS to use when work is boring the arse off me!
