Another Coincidence

Do you like coincidences? I do. At the classic car event in Handen yesterday I'm walking towards an empty bench. Just as I sit down, a woman joins me on the bench. We start to talk. She asks if I'm from around here, and I say yes, from Tungelsta 10 kilometres from here. She smiles and says that's funny, my husband and I are from Småland (in the south of Sweden), and we have been looking for some information about Tungelsta! So I tell her what she wants to know. Then I tell her about a photo for the 100 Strangers project that I had just taken the minute before we met. Of a police officer and a Porsche Police Car. Now she looks at me a little funny and says, my husband has written an article about that car and have probably some information that you could use. It turns out that Monica is married to the well known Bosse Bildoktorn (The Car Doctor),who is the announcer at this venue. We decide to walk over and talk to Bosse as he is just finishing his work for the day. Then Monica says, you really should read this book we bought last year, it's about strange coincidences and is written by Jan Cederquist, and she goes on to tell me that just after they got the book they ran into the author by chance. So smilingly I tell her that I'm actually reading that same book at the moment! It was recommended to me by one of the my strangers Rikard Lundin. Then we tell Bosse about all this, and he says that he will send me all the necessary information that he has. We then chat about this and that for a while, and I take a photo of them and another photographer that was there gets a few shots of us and a few of the Andersson couple. And that was that.
