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

A couple of summers ago, I had just got together with my current boyfriend. We'd been seeing each other for a couple of weeks and things were going swimmingly ie. loads of deep & meaningful convos, hand holding & kissing.
I was due to go on holiday, and in spite of my excitement, I was feeling a little bit sorry for myself, as I'd have to be apart from my newly beloved for 10 WHOLE DAYS!!
Anyway the Tuesday afternoon of the flight I trundled off to the station, suitcase in hand to meet the mate I was flying with. And who should I see walking out of the station but my precious other half?
I should point out here that he works in Central London as an IT engineer, whereas I live well into the suburbs, and at this point he had never been to my home town.
I did a bit of a double take then legged it over to him to ask what he was doing walking out of the station the exact moment I was walking in. Turns out one of the buildings his company owns - get this - had been struck by lightening (!) and all the systems totally f***ed, so he was on his way to do some on site engineering.
We got to have a last kiss and cuddle and off I went with a smile on my face. The fact that he had been there at that moment, due to a lightening strike, pretty much convinced me (a total cynic i might add) that some things are meant to be, and 18 months later we're as happy as ever.
Soppy i know, but click 'I like this' if you believe in true love ;)
