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.

It's not just fer you young'unsWell!
One wednesday (early evening) I went to a pub about 10 miles from my place because they had early evening food on and I couldn't be arsed to cook. At the other end of the pub was a group of ladies, one of whom I had met in a nightclub about 3 weeks before and given a lift home to (she was old enough to be my daughter so no naughtybadness ensued).
It came to pass that another of the ladies fancied the arse off me (her words) but couldn't find a way to get into conversation with me. The young liftee (keep up!) dragged her over to my table and a conversation ensued.
Coincidences were:-
Liftee had never been in that pub before.
Arse fancier usually went to another place to wait for her daughter to finish a dancing lesson but decided on a whim to change.
Arse fancier was not only someone I'd met 20 years before but she used to use my local.
Her ex boyfriend of 20 years ago, I went to school with.
Same guy, after they broke up, bought my late parent's house.
Her ex husband had been my apprentice.
Ex husband's older brother was on the same courses as me when we were apprentices together.
Her family know me from fixing their car at the roadside 2 years before on the way to cornwall, no-one else would stop to help.
Been together now for 2 years, all from not being arsed to cook on a random wednesday.
