The Internet brings people together in many different ways.
Every so often, I get an email from the leader of a cub pack somewhere in the USA. My email address is similar to that of a parent of one of their cubs, I imagine.
The leader tries to delete my address from their Gmail account, and sometimes it returns.
When it does, we have a pleasant exchange of email, until the next time.
@neil Due to a spammer's mistake over 20 years ago, I still get occasional mail that thinks I'm Margaret from a welding company in Clwyd, Wales.
@neil
That is really sweet
@neil I had a similar experience with the Thirsty Bear Brewing Company in San Fransisco (sadly now defunct?). I was eventually able to drop in and say hello in person🍺
@neil Well that's your story. We all know you've really successfully penetrated a foreign paramilitary organisation. Probably have a cover name of RK-Lah.
@neil This is utterly delightful ...
@neil about once a fortnight I get phone calls for a financial controller who used to work for the same company as me at a different location. We have the same name but I'm an engineer he's an accountant. I think the best one was someone flogging corporate boxes at Cheltenham races, 50% off.
