Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
I was walking along the beach in Pattaya (Thailand) and bumped into someone I had dated many years previously in Bristol.
I had just had my son at Matilda Hospital, Hong Kong - and went out of my room to get a drink - there was a girl in there who I had worked with in Bristol 12 years prior, who had given birth the same day.
My neighbour in our gated community in the New Territories (Hong Kong) had moved from the road behind my (then) mother in law in Sussex.
Strange but true!

They changed the Nutella.

"Fans called the move “underhanded” and “dreadful.” Meanwhile, enough people blamed Brexit for the change that a Mondelez spokesman had to tell the BBC, “This change wasn’t done as a result of Brexit.”

But when it comes time for the World Cup they seem to never suffer similar 'little knocks'.
