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?

Fake lotto.My mate James taped the lotto one Saturday. He wrote down the winning numbers, then bought a ticket for the next week's draw with EXACTLY the same numbers.
The next Saturday came around and he left the ticket on the sideboard.
(If you can't see where this one is going - you're an idiot)
So he shouts to his flatmate "Andy, I'm heading out - will you check my lotto ticket? It's on the sideboard! Thanks". And then he left the TV on, with the tape playing.
Sure enough, the numbers came up one by one and Andy went through the f**king roof! Had a real crisis of concience deciding whether to keep the £12.6m he'd just 'won', and pretend it was his own ticket.
Half an hour later, James came back, explained the ruse, pointed and laughed in his face.
The lads didn't speak for about 3 weeks afterwards.
