Back in 2008 my boyfriend was unfortunately ill and admitted to Papworth hospital, near Cambridge. I had been living in Edinburgh previously, where I had attended university, while he lived in Bedford, and went to university in West London. While I was at his hospital bedside one of his old friends from university visited, along with another mutual friend. She looked a little familiar but I thought nothing of it until we began to talk about places we had lived. She was visiting the London area, but was living in Edinburgh at present. I asked which area she lived in, and it was the same area in which I had lived. So I asked which street, and it was the same street on which I had lived, I asked which number....and it was the same number. I had lived on the 3rd floor, she lived on the ground floor. She moved into her flat a few months before I moved out of mine, and yet we met by a hospital bedside near Cambridge, under the most unusual of circumstances. We have remained good friends ever since.
