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?

lemme in lemme in!!
having been reading this all week racking my brains and being unable to think of a vast stroke of luck that has happened to me I have just now remembered a pretty big one that happened to me just 4 months ago. Also I have thought of it just now while pretty hungover :/ which may or may not be proof that beer helps you think or something, probably.
Well anyway I was in the audience of a tv show and I won a FREE HOLIDAY in an audience lucky dip. A 1 in 52 shot (had to match up my card with the last one dealt on the programme) (it was a poker show) and I got it. Sadly the FREE part of the holiday is grossly understated, being as it is a week of free accomodation only, leaving flights, food and general travel and expenses to be paid for. Not very FREE at all :(
Apologies for the scattered slapdash nature of this post.
