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

Friendship groups should not overlap with parents!
About a year ago my parents computer had broken down (as usual) and I was checkng their email for them on the computers at uni (they never have anything exciting, so they asked me to make sure none of the boring stuff was important). I noticed there were some for my dad from someone with the same name as a friend's brother. I wondered if it was the same person as it was a mailing list for a very specialist local interest which the friend's brother. Turned out it was the same guy.

This doesn't sound odd to begin with, especially as both my dad and the friend's brother live within about 20 miles apart, but I met the friend in question because we go to the same uni over 100 miles away and his home town isn't anywhere near where my family home either. So it's a pretty crazy coincidence that someone from his family knows someone from my family.
