Serendipity. The-magical sounding term is used to describe a happy accident: a chance encounter that turns your life upside down for the better.

It springs to mind when thinking of Victoria and Jonathan O’Brien who got married this weekend after she serendipitously chanced upon his tweets. Victoria fell for the man managing the Waterstones account and was dared by a friend to get a date with him. Eventually he said yes and the rest is history.
