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

I was taking my 11+
at a very scary all-girls school very similar to the very scary all-girls school I was already at.
Halfway through the exam a girl ran out to be sick. "Hahaha!" thought I. "At least I'm not that nervous." So on I went and passed, quite well apparently, but declined their invitation so I could stay on at the current all girls school that was across the road from my house.
So first day of senior school comes and all the old pupils get paired with a new pupil to make us seem like a nice friendly bunch. I get paired with a girl called Charlotte and friendship ensues, a friendship so fab we're still mates to this day (despite the 4 or so years we didnt speak).
One day Charlotte and myself were nattering away in the playground and she casually mentions she was sick in her 11+ exam. Turns out she was the girl I was laughing at all those years before. Cue lots of "no way!"s and laughter.
Nowhere near as much laughter as I had when she was sick though...
