I have been very busy at work lately so I decided to dine out this afternoon. Arriving home late morning I asked my ex. if she would like to have lunch out somewhere. It’s been a while since we did this although we did it every day on vacation! We drove some miles out of town to a nice country village pub we know, one of many we know actually….LOL and settled down to a nice meal. During the meal somebody came in who was looking for a free table. We indicated that the adjacent table to ours was vacant. She and her husband came in and sat beside us at the next table. Me, being the open and gregarious person I am began conversing with her and we discovered that we were both born in Liverpool. She was now living in Cardiff, Wales and was meeting, with her husband, three other people who had not yet arrived. When they did arrive and after a few minutes, one of the new arrivees spoke to me and said, ‘Don’t I know you’, aren’t you Shirley Anne the electrician who came to do a job for me a couple of years ago’? How could I deny it? Isn’t if funny that no matter where you go in this world you meet somebody you know? She asked if I could do another job for her but that she would call me at a more appropriate time. It seems I cannot escape work even when I’m not doing it!
