Met anyone you knew on your travels??

I have and its the strangest experience.

D and I were in Benidorm -first holiday abroad -just a young thing and we were strolling down the street and I jokingly said -see that guy -he is the dead spit of this engineer who works with us even down to the walk -well -it bleeding was him !!

I was washing dishes in a campsite in the Black Forest area -and I heard this (posh lol) Scottish accent giving it big licks.So I kept on- then thought -hey that accent is similar to mine (apart from the posh bit) -looked round -theres the Gym teacher from the High School.

So I said -youre from Blairgowrie arent you -and she was like -yeah and then I said I recognised the accent -she was absolutelty horrified that her accent was distinguishable -snobby cow.Imagine meeting someone from your hometown in deepest Black Forest and being embarassed -and no she didnt know me.:)

We went to the Vendee -picked a random site as we had our own caravan -again- in washing the dishes -theres the bloke who I was brought up with -really mad --pity his wife didnt like anyone he was brought up with but she had to sit at the pool everyday with the same swimmie on as me -silly fool -I dont know what her prob was but Gordon was fine all the time we were amazed that we ended up in the same place.

Cant think of any more offhand but surely some of you have seen someone on holiday you know -its really weird but funny !!

Went on my mates hen week recently in Costa teguise, in the actual same villas we bumped into a load of people from the street she lived when she was little. Unfortunately her dad still lives there and doesn�t even know she�s getting married!!

oops -4get -guess thats the cat out the bag then lol !!
Its funny cos when something like that happens its almost like youre really good pals when in fact you probably would pass them on the street in your normal environment.
All good tho and I have no doubt Keyplus at all that she was the woman for you and you have 4 kids who will be glad in the future you bit the bullet and went with your instincts !!!
