Unexpected Good FortuneTravelling 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?

Unexpected REALLY good fortune..As an innocent child just into double digits, I happened to be in the main post office when I found a wad of money folded up and held together with a money clip. Stupidly, my innocence got the better of me and I tapped the nearest guy on the shoulder and asked if he'd dropped it.... he had a leather jacket on which I clearly must have thought was a sign of riches.
I don't think I even noticed the pound signs in his eyes as he said yes, but to be fair he did give me a reward. Yes.. a whole POUND! Woo.
Even more stupidity ensued as I then spilt this with my friend.
Potential hundreds to 50p in less than a minute.
