This thread is dedicated to the weird, the wonderful, the odd-ball things that happen to us in life. Things that a comedy script writer would be proud of. Post your comments/ stories below and so, to start you off......
THIS IS TRUE AND LIVE...
I got a text from my other half about 30 minutes ago. She is travelling aboard a national express coach from Nottingham to Liverpool to see her mum.
On departing the Mansfield pick-up the driver announces that as they are running late and being informed there are no pick-ups at Chesterfield that they will be omitting that stop and carrying on to Sheffield, nobody says anything. On joining the M1 motorway a guy goes up to the driver and says " Where are we?" On being told he replies "I wanted to get off at Chesterfield" (Duh?). Sooooo, they come off the M1 at the next junction and head back to Chesterfield.
On arrival the driver and this guy go to the boot only to find that at some point on the M1 the boot door has opened and some of the luggage has jumped ship. Everybody gets off the coach to identify the remaining luggage. A couple who are due to fly out from Manchester Airport discover that theirs isn't there and the husband has put his vital cancer medication in one of the cases!
The story has a happy ending though as the cases avoided being run over by a forty tonner and were spotted and rescued by another National Express coach.
What happens next? who knows? They are running 20 minutes late though.
The journey continues.................

Kamara said that i did a good job and he was grateful that i kept the pitches fit for use and he wanted me to give him a quote for an indoor training pitch that he was building next to his house. I of course agreed and asked him if i could write ' Flooring Contractors for Bradford City FC ' on my van to get more local business. He agreed and told me to come and see him the following week regarding his house.
When i arrived at the Stadium a week later Sky tv were outside and i was refused entry as Kamara had been sacked.
Then Bradford City were in the Premiership and they built a new shop with offices. I turned up with a van full of carpets to fit in the chairmans and managers offices and the Boardroom. On the way i thought that given the chance i could see Paul Jewell and tell him about what i used to do and try to get some work from the players ( we had some very wealthy ones at the time ) and ask about the van, tell him about Kamara etc etc.
Unbelievably Sky Sports were there again because Jewell had been sacked that morning. Again i was sent packing and not allowed in the building lol.
When i eventually fit the carpets there was no one there at all and i didn't work for them again pmsl.
