I've not posted this evening as I've been picking up one of the owners from Toulouse Airport, its the first time he's been since we arrived in January. I've only ever spoken to him on the phone as he lives in the States. We had a job interview, in a London hotel, but only his business partner was there, both millionaires.
Anyway we chatted for 2 hours, on the way home, about work related issues, staff problems, etc. Just as we came through our village he started telling me what was in the black tubular cannister in his luggage ... artwork!!!
Turns out he's an art collector and it's an Andy Warhol original. So I casually ask him if he knows Ben Brown.
"Of course, a very good friend of mine. He was invited here, on this visit, but they've already left France and are back in the UK."
Now, I appreciate, people think I must exaggerate the daft shyte that goes on in my life but its just one crazy coincidence after another that constantly surprises me, let alone anyone else.
So I now have a route back to Ben Brown, the art dealing millionaire friend of Glenn Fuhrman. I didn't ask any follow up questions but I'm betting my art loving boss, as he lives in the States, knows Fuhrman personally.
Whoopee-fukin-Doo, I'm back in
