It must have been around 1985/6 and I was walking down the street of my hometown.
One of the local restaurant owners was leaning on his doorway and called to me.
His name was Hermin, however you spell it!
He handed me and envelop and said,
"I have gone out of business, so these are yours!".
I looked inside the envelop and saw that it was tickets for a free trip!
To Victoria, Canada.
Never had been there, so cool!
When I looked up, he was already gone.
I called the travel agent and confirmed this was not a scam.
Nor a condo sales promotion.
So, I went.
And had a ball!
Not far from the first class hotel were several museums, lots of shopping and high tea spots.
And a hospital.
Of course, I managed to end up in a full length arm cast.
sigh .....
Luckily, casts and codeine were quite cheap in Canada!
So, got to watch a but of cable as well.
This group was ruling the airwaves at the time!
