So I had a breakfast meeting today with some people I’d never met before …
Because you can always tell when someone is looking around for people they’ve never met, my guests immediately walked up to the rather strange-behaving chap and said “Are you Robert Campbell?”
Of course it was … so they then proceeded to introduce themselves, except there was a problem.
“Errrrm, I’m not here to meet you.”
“What?” they replied … “Aren’t you Rob Campbell?”
“Yes I am” replied the guy …
“Rob Campbell, the cynic bloke?”
“No, I’m Rob Campbell from FDA New York”
Yep, they had gone up to a completely different bloke who happened to have exactly the same name.
OK so I know Rob Campbell is not exactly the most uncommon of names, but it’s still abit weird.
They even got a business card from the guy because they knew I’d never believe it, ha

So to the poor Yank who is probably going to be punched and spat on everytime he tells someone in Singapore his name, I apologise in advance.
