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.
What spoooky* coincidences have you encountered?
* spoooky should always have three o's. 100% fact

A small worldBack at the tail-end of the eighties I played in an early music group (all farthingales and crumhorns) based in Sheffield.
We played at the Scarborough Fair one summer and while doing a street gig an aussie came up to us and said he owned a hotel at Scarborough Beach near Perth, WA and would we like to go and play there. Yeah right.
Turned out to be genuine and we ended up with 4 weeks in Oz, all expenses paid including Club Class flights and posh hotel (and cash too). How good was that!
The coincidence bit was that as we were playing in the hotel this couple came up to us and told us they had seen us play the previous week in Sheffield!
The world doesn't get much smaller than that!
