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

Xbox Live
Playing on Xbox Live (as you do) I ended up chatting to a random person in the game lobby. Usual chit-chat ensues and I ask him where he is from. "Dartford" he replies, "but I used to live in Croydon." Suprised, I inform him that I used to live in Croydon also. "Yeh, I used to live in some crappy little village called New Addington." Now I am in disbelief as I that is where I used to live in my younger years!!
It also turns out that we went to the same High School, but at different times (he was a fair bit older) but we still knew some of the same teachers. I then asked him where he lived in New Addington and told him where I lived. He knew my road (rather well) and asked if I knew someone called Barry who used to live there. Barry not only lived dead opposite my house, but he worked with my dad (when he wasn't doing time) as well. He then asked if I knew that guy "Terry, who killed his girlfriend." Sadly I did know who Terry was - He killed my best friend's mum (who lived 2 doors down from me) and is currently doing time in Belmarsh prison.
He then told me that his mates girlfriend's nan moved into my old house recently - I was skeptical at first, until he describled the little porch on the front of the house (which my dad built) without me saying a word.
Spoooky!
It is a small world indeed!.......
