This is a question Spoooky Coincidence

B3ta's very own Fraser was once a cycle courier. On one job out to docklands his radio gave out, so he had to find a public phonebox to ring back to base.

He'd just located one when it began to ring. Picking it up, it was (obviously) a wrong number, but Fraser recognised the voice. Turned out it was a mate of his he hadn't seen for ages.

What spoooky* coincidences have you encountered?

* spoooky should always have three o's. 100% fact

oooh i have a good one for this week.....
In January this year I went to China and Hong Kong with my parents for a poke around (was born in Hong Kong y'see). After the usual touristy tours in China we were left to our own devices in Hong Kong.

One evening I went out with my sister in Hong Kong for a few drinks and ended up getting directed to some ex-pat hangouts where mainly british kids (read - white) drank. After a while I left my sister to go to the bar where i started chatting to a group of lovely young girls. We were both invited back to one of the girls houses where i noticed a photograph of four kids sat eating ice-cream on a sunbed that i recognised but couldnt for the life of me remember where from.

A few drinks later I realised where i recognised the picture from, we had a copy on our landing at home! As it turned out, we were 2000 odd miles from home sitting drinking in the house of the girl who's mother was rushed out the maternity room in order for me to be born. The photo was of her and her younger brother and me and my younger sister as our parents became friends that fateful day in the hospital.

As if that wasnt coincidence enough, the girl was also on holiday from university where she lived in halls with none other than my next door neighbour (I found this out a few weeks after when telling my neighbour this story over msn).

Aaaand, i suppose this is a bit obvious if you think about it, we share the same birthday.



I have a massive penis and I'm not sorry.
