What a coincidence! ....

.... I forgot to tell you all the most amazing thing about our holiday last month.
At the very start of the holiday we found our seats and got ourselves settled.  A couple of minutes later someone got on and sat at the table on the other side of the aisle to us. 

I saw her and nudged Mr Fixit and said "Is that 'C'?"  Now C is married to L, and L and  Mr Fixit have been friends since they were 8 years old.  C and L got married about the same time as us and we all used to go out together on a Saturday night and had some wonderful boating holidays together until they moved to Cornwall.  We never lost touch, although it was rare to see each other.  The last time was probably about 3 years ago. 

Still with me? 

Anyway I didn't have my glasses on, so Mr Fixit looked and said yes, he thought it was her.  Then I heard her speak, and that confirmed it.  Yes, she and L were on the same holiday, in the same carriage, and almost sitting next to us.

Woww, what a coincidence.  We had no idea they were going, and they didn't know we were. 

It made a great holiday even better for all four of us.
