yeah it was just a shock, ill speak to him next time i see him at a meeting.
it was wierd as everyone knows that the only people in AA are wino tramps and lost hopers and not professionals with normal lives
(thats a joke of course)
i know what you mean about a small world, i started going to AA in December in the town i was working away in at the time, first time i went to a meeting in my home town , the lady running it that week is from the same village as me and ive known her years as were both in the same line of work. She was suprised to see me as wed not spoke for a few years and i didnt have a problem then, but just happy to see that i was seeking help and hoped that the meetings would help.
