1. My parents overheard someone mention the group they were leading and decided to introduce themselves in case something not nice was mentioned (as if!). They discovered that the person talking had been my kindergarten teacher more than 26 years ago - she recognised them and remembered my name, just as I walked up to them all.
2. Met two Macedonian guys dancing in No. 1 Disco (the original) in Sanur. Conversation went thus:
"Where are you from?"
"Australia."
"Me too. Where abouts?"
"Melbourne."
"Me too! Where in Melbourne?"
"Doncaster."
"Oh, you don't know (and I put in the name of a friend of mine)."
"Oh, yes, our cousin lives next door to him."
I had met their cousin the week before I went to Bali.
