#10 It's a bit of a coincidence

we're on. Unlike Donkey Kong, we've done a few now, mate. I know. We still got a couple more that I don't know what we spoke about, so we might end up doubling over on some stuff eventually. Yeah. Good.  So what should we talk about today?  I don't know what we're going to talk about. Nothing to talk about. You did have a topic you want to talk about and there must be a reason why you want to talk. Yeah, we've forgotten already.  Because between us, we've got one half decent conversation. So you were talking about chance or coincidence, but also fate? Yeah. Being in the right place at the right place at the right time. That's it? Yeah. That's like a song from the indies or is that right here, right now or something? You're too young for that? Probably. Why not too young? Fat boy slim. I remember. Right here, right now. Yeah. Right place, right time. Sounds like a sort of kind of vibe.  Yeah, probably. Despite what the logo would say about my creviced face.  Yeah, people being in the right place at the right time. A few coincidence. Or not. But I guess like us.  I saw something on your Facebook that made me realize you work with autistic kids and neurodivergent kids, and I got in touch and then.  No, if you remember it's other way around. What's it? My parents got me a voucher for the barbecue school for my 40th. I contacted you to say, what's the best one to go on? And you told me and then you messaged straight back and said, do you do this? Oh, yeah. So it's even more of a coincidence really, because unless you may have contacted me anyway, but  yeah, definitely. And I think people come into your lives at the right time for you and they leave your lives as well. I'm not saying  dropped a hint, yeah, but you know what I mean? Sometimes people leave your lives in different ways at different times, but I definitely believe that people come into your life at the right time when you need them and when there's something you can both learn. And I think that's amazing. Again, go back to an episode we did on social media and things like that. That is one of the great advantages of internet and things like that, is because it kind of spreads the opportunity for people to come into your life, although that's not always a good thing, but there's more chance of it, I suppose. Yeah, I think so. A couple of times recently I said I've been getting a bit of counseling, I needed a little bit of guidance and I've got a lovely gentleman helping me with just a bit of direction in my life at the moment, but it was my gardener who's helping me get our house ready for selling and stuff. He was talking about a guy who he'd done some counseling with, and I just took that as I could have gone, yeah, he's just talking about some bloke he does a bit of counseling with. But it was just a few things that fired in me. And I just said, yeah, that's what I need. That's exactly what I need right now. A bit of wisdom, bit of an older guy, just to give me some wisdom and direction. And that was exactly what I needed, really. And it was just from chatting to this guy working on my garden who was pretty wise in himself and he wasn't saying, oh yeah, you need counseling. But for me, I just took that lead as it's the universe putting these steps in for you.  Sorry, for me that I needed and yeah, it really worked. See, I'm going to offer the counterpoint, I'm going to disagree, okay, because I think that's bollocks. It's not maybe not as strong a disagreement as that, but.  I don't know. Maybe for me, there's more to take from it, that it's important that you are open and you seize opportunities. I remember listening to someone was talking once about they did sort of a piece of research on people, on older people, on their deathbeds. And the thing that people regretted the most usually started with not  I didn't do did, I didn't do enough of I didn't say yes enough. It was never something they did. It was
