Small world

On Thursday one of my classmates told me the most amazing story. This woman is an international student from Norway and she's living in the city, Sturt St I believe. The previous Friday she had been sitting at home alone, bored, so at 10:30ish decided to go out for a walk. She walked past a pub, heard live music and went inside for a look. She had been watching the band for not 2 minutes when a bloke she didn't know approached her and started up a conversation. Hearing her accent, it wasn't long before he asked where she was from. He said, "Oh, I had a sweetheart from Norway - she was from a little town on the west coast but she went home years ago". My friend asks, "Really, what's the town called?". It's her town. It's the same tiny little village she gre up in and she KNOWS the sweetheart! How crazy! She even gave him a phone number he could catch up with her.

It doesn't end there.... they keep talking and eventually the band finishes and the singer came down to join them and the conversation turns to why my friend decided to come to Adelaide. Her dad lies in Pt Lincoln. Oh yeah, there's a few Norweigans in Pt Lincoln, what's his name then? The singer's dad has worked with her dad for years! How creepy - I know Adelaide is good at that and everyone knows everyone - but it's totally amazing that these 3 people from all over the world are connected in this tiny pub!
