Keep being reminded of these and here's another I'd forgotten. In my very first job, at a firm of accountants, I was looking after a client in London so travelled down every month. One of the lads I'd started and trained with had qualified and left and was working in London prior to going overseas. I rang him and arranged to meet when I was down and he mentioned that another pal of his was flying in from Oman. I knew Hameed so was looking forward to a good night out. As my boss was a director of British Midland, I flew down rather than go on the train but had to queue at the Underground station at Heathrow to get a ticket. There were a few windows open and a few queues and when I got to the front of the queue I heard my name and there, in the next queue, was Hameed.
