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.

When mates collide badlyYou know when you have two sets of friends who've never met and you think...they'd just get on like a house on fire?
I met my friend K and her boyfriend when I was working down near Tunbridge Wells and we really clicked. However, I started to lose touch when I moved up to London so when my Birthday came round, it seemed like a perfect opportunity to catch up.
At the same time, I thought it would be fantastic to introduce them to another couple I'd met in London - I was sure they'd get on. Along came the day and I was really excited about getting these guys together so I was all anticipation when K and her boyfriend arrived and I showed them in.
I've never witnessed someone see a ghost but I've seen the nearest damn thing! Turns out that K and one half of the other couple had once been an item. K's boyfriend had moved into their apartment 4 years previous and they'd started an affair that resulted in them running away to Nepal. Meanwhile, my cuckolded mate had more or less had a nervous breakdown.
Needless to say, I didn't make any efforts to get them together again afterwards!
