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?

A new start...................I'm in an unhappy marriage but lack the balls to get out, plus I'm out of my depth at work (BT) but lack the balls to...... Then out of the blue my (now) ex tells me SHE wants out and then a week later my manager phones me up to ask if I'd like a "golden handshake" of £30k plus an index-linked pension for the rest of my life.He tells me I have to let him know by the end of the week - Took me two seconds........ Gave some of the cash to my soon-to-be ex and now I'm in a better job with a lovely lady and that ever-increasing pension too! Oh, and today my free Ipod arrived for opening a new bank account!!
