Couple plan divorce after bumping into each other at beach

A Romanian couple are planning a divorce after they bumped into each 
other at a seaside resort while both were pretending to be elsewhere.

The two were talking to each other on their mobile phones when they 
collided on the beach of Mamaia on the Black Sea, reports the Ziarul daily.

Victor Dragomirescu was complaining how much work he had to do at his 
parents' house, miles away, and wife Lucica was saying how she was too 
ill to get out of bed.

Lucica was saying: "I feel worse than ever. I haven't eaten anything 
since yesterday and I don't think I can stand it any more.

"Thank God we have the mobile phones because I couldn't get out of bed 
even if for answering the other phone. What about you?"

Victor answered: "Oh, don't ask. If you could just see me I think you 
wouldn't recognise me. I am all full of dust as I've been to the mill 
with some corn.

"Now I have to gather the fruit in my mother's yard. I can't look at my 
hands how horrible they are."

But the discussion ended abruptly when they realised they were standing 
in front of each other.

The Dragomirescus, from Ploiesti, Prahova county, returned home to try 
to clear things up but say a divorce is the most likely solution.
