while booking a cruise holiday in a local travel agent's, the customer in front of me was a former work colleague. When I took my place with the agent she said that that was the first time she had people knowing each other booking the same cruise at the same time. Once on board the ship I met with the couple I knew. Nearing the end of the cruise I went to the pursers office with a query. The purser came from the same country as myself. I asked where he stayed, Glasgow. whereabouts? the southside.whereabouts? Giffnock.whereabouts? such and such a street, two streets from my own address. I then told him of the couple I met and where we worked. He said my brother worked there, it turned out that his brother worked with me and was still in contact with the couple I knew on the cruise.
