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.

and had just gone back to the hotel from the beach and ordered a beer from the bar. The bloke sitting on a stool said something like, "You from the UK?", to which I answered, "Yes", and started a conversation with him. He asked me where abouts and I told him that I was from Cambridge. He looked stunned and told me that he was also from Cambridge. I asked him where abouts and he told me the area which was also the same as mine. It turned out that this bloke was the 'miserable git' next door that I had never met before, as I thought he was some kind of hermit. It turned out he was a truck driver and was away lots. When I got home we struck up a friendship and began to frequent the same pub. He died a few years later but how weird its that. Not meeting your neighbour for two years whilst living next door to him, then bumping into this complete stranger in a hotel bar in FUCKING THAILAND! who turns out to be him. Now, if you don't think that is spooky (with three o's) you can pop it up your bot bot.
