Spoooky CoincidenceB3ta'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.

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

If Hong Kong Jimmy is reading this, sorry J, it's your story.Hong Kong Jimmy's brother in law, a proper Fullham Londoner, first time out of the UK, is visiting the in-laws in Hong Kong. One night, HKJ takes this bloke to an out-of-city shanty pub up on the hills. A wizened old Chinese geezer walks up to the Londoner and pokes him in the chest. "I know you," he says.
"Leave it out, mate," says the Londoner. "I've never been to Hong Kong before."
"No, we no meet in HK. We meet in London. The Cock Pub. I beat you at darts. It was a Tuesday."
The Londoner's jaw drops.
