Coincidences
 Listen to the item
Joy Peerleff and John Wells cannot believe the string of coincidences that brought them together as friends.
Joy and John only met a few聽years ago while working on a book for the聽'History of Tetbury Society'. While chatting about their backgrounds, they realised that both their parents had been in India聽during the 1930s. Wondering if they might have crossed paths...on a lark...John searched through his gran's old photo albums and Joy looked through hers - and聽were stunned to discover pictures of each other's parents in their family albums.
