Arrived at our Airbnb. Woman who owns it pointed out the usual - keys here, wifi password - then said 'and I must tell you about... The seagull' Turns out one is nesting outside our bedroom and we mustn't look at it because otherwise it gets agitated and will attack the windows

When I was a child someone told me they could get me a pirate copy of Jurassic Park if I paid them. I went home and asked my mum for the money on the basis 'it's already my favourite film and this version has pirates in'

Was on the tube and a man got on and asked to borrow my phone and insert his sim, because his was dead and he needed to desperately reach somebody. Mysteriously, when I refused because it sounded dodgy, he asked nobody else and quietly sat opposite the rest of the journey

At the pub and a man tried repeatedly to chat up the woman serving, eventually trying to pretend he knew her. She shut him down with: 'You're just another guy with a beard'

Went to a spa this evening. Not at my best looking right now but at least I wasn't the white guy with dreadlocks who had 'Hakuna Matata' tattooed across his back
