See? Enriched!! Thank you Moss, I know Jane loves investigating roots of words too, so I hope she reads this. "Walpole formed the word on an old name for Sri Lanka, Serendip. He explained that this name was part of the title of "a silly fairy tale, called The Three Princes of Serendip: as their highnesses traveled, they were always making discoveries, by accidents and sagacity, of things which they were not in quest of...." found on the internet....
which obviously is a great source of serendipitious information ;)
