Oh here's a real one.
@ksm06 just approached me in the YYZ international MLL due to this post: https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/29075329-post3403.html
So I met a new FTer.
And it was totally unplanned, unlike most of the posts in this thread

Some people are jealous
i did not plan to meet our friend CZAMflyer. I knew we would have a date overlap here but since we flew different airlines on different routes, I didn't know where they would be
And to quote the famous @vernonc
24left is happily doing the aviation version of speed dating. Lol
......the adventure continues

Good to see Empress er Andrew Yiu sitting next to me (how's that for coincidence?) in the front cabin on YYZ-YUL flight this AM--it has been a while. Had a good long talk about the good old days, catering, having fun and keeping up with the Jones').
Congrats and best of luck on your new VP position Andrew!^ (I found this out from another AC meeting in the morning)

Not sure if this counts but I was in the washroom at YVR Dom MLL and someone asked me what my puke yellow flyertalk tags were for. I started explaining about FT and he said that he is on it (lurker) so I explained the tags were for exactly what happened - i.e. FTs see the tags and connect. Never got his name/handle because I think we both were in a rush and the washrooms are not the right place to connect.

This was on November 26, but I haven't really had a chance to just sit down and go through photos until now (8+ hours in the NH F lounge in NRT).
@24left and I realized we were both in Sydney for one overlapping evening, so we grabbed dinner.
However, something ridiculous happened when I opened the menu. You'll see it.
I think we both burst out laughing.
Of course I ordered one.
The best part was that it was actually decent. Not my favorite, but certainly drinkable. Sorry for the lack of focus on the bottle. @24left may have a better shot.
Anyway, here's what everyone has been waiting for:

@canadiancow
That was great fun.
Here is my photo, just slightly sharper focus. I also checked out the Moo Brew company website. Wow, Tasmania.

Bubble aloft
In the SQ lounge in TPE and bumped into 24left near the stirfry. Recognized her from AC 11 where we had an unfortunate encounter with a gentleman and an unattended alarm clock over the pacific - in a dark cabin. As we were both just here for weekend we got to talking about mileage runs and realized who we were. Looking forward to an alarm free night. And hopefully we won’t misconnect to YYZ.
