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?

Free stuff and legal issuesGot offered some work with MTV not long ago which meant they gave me a free £400 video camera to keep, no questions asked. They didn't use my footage in the end but sent a contract to me asking if I'd agree to them using it for future projects. Happily signed it and sent it back to them despite all the 'we actually own your soul' clauses riddled throughout it. Why did I sign? Because they put the wrong model number on the 'in recepit of this blah blah camera you agree to blah blah' part. So I not only got a free video camera, if they use my footage I'm going to sue them for all they're worth.
