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.

My father pre-empted Elton JohnOn the morning of Diana's death, my dad and I were on our way to see friends in Coventry. There was no decent music to listen to as everything was sombre and emotional, so Dad stuck on Radio 4 (he'd have done it anyway, the boring old fart*, but this way he had an excuse). As we were listening to all the tributes coming in from various people, Dad sighed and said:
"It seemed to me she lived her life like a candle in the wind".
Not sure when it was that Elton John announced that he would be rewriting "Candle In The Wind" but it definitely wasn't the same day the woman died.
*And now I listen to Radio 4, making me a boring old fart too.
