The youngest stranger I asked was six years old. The oldest stranger was eighty-something.
Some were asked in the queue at the supermarket or the post office. One time I asked the waiter at a restaurant. I also asked Joanne, who was trying to sell me car insurance over the phone.
My favourite? It's hard to choose. "Don't tie your shoelace in a revolving door" said by a chap called Russell was a corker.
"Spend time with the people you love" said Nicole, aged nine, on a particular day when I was feeling alone, really pulled on my heart strings.
And then 'Make every day count' said Matt, was a particular fond memory. I met this stranger by chance in a woodland car park. It was a cold winter's day and I had been for a run in the woods. Caked in mud I arrived back at the car park only to find I had somehow locked my car keys in the car. He was an incredibly kind man and he drove me to my house and back to get my spare keys.
During the car journey, with conversation flowing, of course I had to ask him for his life advice.
When I was younger I was told, 'don't talk to strangers.'
Good advice.
But on this occasion, I am so glad I did.

Liv is a keen cross country runner, a coffee barista, and now - poet. Her spoken word poem, 'The Lockdown Chat' was aired at the 2020 BBC Upload Festival in the Writers' Tent.
"I have many childhood memories of making up and performing silly rhymes, songs and stories, even before I started school. These days I find I am inspired with poetry ideas when I am out running. I can't jot down the verses until I get home so to help me remember the lines I keep repeating the words out loud as I huff and puff up and down the Yorkshire hills, sounding truly insane.
"I love how poetry encourages rebellion, experimentation, freedom and so much more."
