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.

One night in ZimbabweI met a girl I went to school with in a nightclub once (we didn't go to school in a nightclub though). The nightclub was attached to the Sheraton Harare hotel in Zimbabwe. We're both English. If we were both Zimbabweans, it wouldn't have been as much of a coincidence, would it?
Also, I was on gate guard once with someone (I'll call him Appo) who spoke with a mackem accent. I asked him whereabouts in the north east he was from and he replied "It's a village just outside Durham. You won't have heard of it - it's called East Rainton." Turns out I had heard of it 'cos my Grandad lived there all his life. Also turns out that Appo had been speaking to an old man in the local pub the previous week, and the old man had asked him what he did for a living. "I'm in the RAF" said Appo. "Oh, my Grandson's in the RAF. His name's 3-hoops. Do you know him?" It was my Grandad you know.
