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?

Amazon again
last christmas they cocked up and sent me two copies of everything i ordered from them. so as to avoid any possible excess charges i alerted them to this situation, they responded thanking me for telling them, and provided a freepost address for me to return them. i fully intended to send them back but was "too busy" for a couple of days, so didn't. i then received two e-mails each announcing that amazon had realised they'd cocked up, each requesting that i send the items back to a different freepost address than the original one, and each containing a £5 gift code, so i basically got £10 of my next order for them messing up twice :)
