The internet is big enough, and my email is predictable enough that I often get emails for another Robin Ward. I always reply saying "Sorry, you have the wrong Robin" and usually get an apology.
Yesterday, however, when I did this in reply to someone asking me for my lawn bowling membership fee (in Ireland), the person said "Thank you for your email but I have the right Robin." The audacity!
I'm still in shock at how confidently incorrect this person was.
