I use to have several pen pals growing up. My sisters and I had the same pen pals all through grade and high school. It's a good story so I am going to tell it...
My grandparents were engaged and Grandpa was working at his carnival booth in Southend, Essex a vacation spot. It was days away from his wedding when he met a couple and invited them to the wedding. They did things like that back then; invite complete strangers to your wedding! Ha! Well, this couple became their best friends.
