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.

* spoooky should always have three o's. 100% fact

Blooody great (and spoooky) explosionSome of you might know that I'm a journalist. I was sent to Paris to cover the launch of the first of the ESA's Ariane 5 rockets several years ago.
As we sat in a great big room, watching huge screens of the impending launch being beamed back from Kourou, I said, in a very loud and not entirely subtle voice: "It's going to explode, you know". This did not go down well with the assembled ESA officials whose entire careers rested on the monster making it off the launch pad.
Two minutes later: Whoops.
