I have mentioned how, at my folk club a few weeks back, Andy, one of the regulars, announced that he had been in the folk club for the same period and at the same Uni as me. Well, things are getting weirder. Yesterday, two women came to me for forms processing, both with unusual surnames, twenty minutes apart and on their way to the Channel Isles.

I was in the Union with the brother of the second and rowed with the brother of the first, both at the same University as Andy.

Should I start making tinfoil hats?

Was it a very large community with a very small university?

Nope. Loughborough, big campus.

On a trip to the IoW I was talking to the conductor of the Dotto train that runs between Seaview and Ryde. Turns out he and I were born in the same house (about 6 or 7 years apart). His parents were also from Lancashire/Merseyside but the connection stopped there, thankfully!

They took the ingredient out of tinfoil that blocks brain waves years ago.

I've met relatives who live abroad by chance on a tube platform.
