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.
What spoooky* coincidences have you encountered?
* spoooky should always have three o's. 100% fact

That's the coolest thing I'll ever do.........and no one was there to see it (to paraphrase Homer Simpson)
I'm sure at some point many people have tried in one way or another (usually when bored) to do a trick shot in sport (such as scoring a goal with eyes closed etc) Well, I was teaching on a summer camp in Poland this year and was a bit pissed off to be in the middle of nowhere, with one pub selling shitty beer, 50 teenagers running arround destroying the place and an incompetent boss). Also was missing my girlfriend like crazy and as already stated bored as hell!
Any how, was on my own messing around at the basket ball hoop killing time taking shots. Decided to try the trick of throwing the ball over my shoulder at the hoop. As you can guess, I was missing every time! I suddenly had the thought 'if my mobile beeps now, and it is a message from my lady, then the ball will go straight into the hoop'. So I threw the ball over my shoulder. As soon as it left my hand my phone beeped. It was a message from her and I just had time enough to turn around and see the ball drop straight through the hoop! Stood there well chuffed for a bit, then realised no bugger was there to see my triumph!
Appologies for length.....but never for girth!!!!
