Odd little story ....
BALLOON BUDDIES
Laura Buxton released a helium-filled balloon during celebrations for her grandparentsââ¬â¢ gold wedding anniversary in Blurton, Staffordshire, in June 2001. Attached to the balloon were her name and address and a note asking the finder to write back. Ten days later, she received a reply. The balloon had been found by another Laura Buxton in the garden hedge of her home in Pewsey, Wiltshire, 140 miles away. Both Lauras were aged ten, and both had three-year-old black Labradors, a guinea pig, and a rabbit. ââ¬ÅI hope we can become best friends,ââ¬Â said the Staffordshire Laura.
