World travel Coincidence story that happened 3 years ago.
Me and my good mate from the local pub used to play snooker together on a regular basis , usually every other Saturday afternoon.
So one particular afternoon in August, I said to him " i cant play for the next 3 weeks bruv, I'm off on holiday"
"Right o" he said. No hes a bit daft and his missus does everything for him, bar wipe his arse.
Little did he know, that in fact he was going on holiday the same time.
Fast forward the next week, me and missus are off to mexico and are catching the train to Gatwick , gets on at cadoxton, off at cardiff central.
We were hungry and decided to pop in spoons for a pint and breakfast opposite the station, before catching the big train.
Goes in and my mate is there with his missus.
We look at each other and go "fuck you going then".
"Holiday, I told you last week".
"Where too?".
"Mexico"
"And us"
"Well fuck me, from Gatwick?"
"Yeah"
Turns out, same flight, same part of mexico playa del carmen, but not same resort, they were a few doors down.
Our women didnt believe us that we hadn't spoke about it or planned it.
I had to look at my missus and swear on the kids lives like.
Me and my mate still talk about that to this day.
When me and him went for our first pint in mexico, we took selfies and put em on fb, people commenting "why didnt you tell us" had to explain the story to them.
