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?

I once had a drug debtthat needed to paid pronto or risk beatings.
I can't remember how much the actual debt was (somewhere between £200-£300, i think), but i managed to get together all but about £40-odd.
Normally i would have appealed to the dealers good nature and give me a few more days to get the rest, but i happened to know that this particular chap didn't have a good nature.
Still, it was late so there were no shops open where i could sell some stuff, so i had no choice but to go to his house and hope that he was in a good mood.
On the way there i found £55 by the side of the road.
I smiled.
