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

A few years ago
I was driving home when I saw a mate walking. I knew she was heading to work near the station a mile or so away, so I offered her a lift.
After I dropped her off, I realised that I'd turned the wrong way and was stuck in rush-hour traffic outside the station.
This was especially galling as I was expecting to be driving back there in a couple of hours anyway to collect the then Mr Quar.
The traffic crawled along and I found myself stopped at the station zebra crossing, where I spotted Mr Quar ambling across!
I honked the horn and he turned and nearly fainted from shock at seeing me, then jumped in the car.
The course he was on had finished early and he'd thought he could get home before I did. No chance, Sucker!
