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

I called
Kevin Pietersen's reverse sweep for six off Muralitharan*.
We were watching it live in the Sky room (sorry, JCR) at Bridges Hall, Reading Uni. And I said (thinking that since KP had about 136, he should do something hilariously daring), "It's about time he played a reverse sweep for six. It's been done before."
Very next ball, that's exactly what he did. Everyone present** was spoooked out!
* For you cultureless Yanks, I'm talking about test cricket. A five day game that the English, not being an innately spiritual people, invented to have some concept of eternity.
** I can think of three or four people off the top of my head who witnessed my incredible vision of the future.
