An extraordinary coincidence happened last Saturday.
Dr B. needed to retrieve a router from his company's West End office, and I went with him. Once at the front door, I noticed the logo of the company a friend of mine works for. While writing my name down in the visitors' book at the reception desk, I noticed my friend had just signed in. I tried calling him but his mobile was off, so we just went up to his office (after picking up the router – and a couple of free chocolate bars and drinks from the fridge). The look of utter disbelief on his face was priceless. We were of course the last persons he would have expected to buzz in. This little surprise visit paid off in the end, as he told me that they've got a lot of work on one of their websites at the moment – and I told him I had just finished some contract work. I'm going in tomorrow afternoon to see if we can help each other out. If all goes well, Dr B. and I might technically be working in the same building (if he was not currently working on a long-term project outside London). London never felt so small.
