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?

Now this is *REALLY* Spooky...Driving down the M6 a few years back, I saw a black Calibra, exactly like my mate's, on the hard shoulder.
'Shit!.. thinks I, does the honorable thing, goes to pull onto the hard shoulder to reverse back.
Except I couldn't, because a black Vectra Estate was also reversing down the hard shoulder towards them.
As I'm pulling in after it, a Red MR2 pulls onto the shoulder, and heads back as well.
----
My mate had lend his Calibra to his parents, who had a burst tyre. Randomly, he happened to be passing in his works' Vectra on his way to a job. I was on my way down south to see another mate, completely unconnected.
The lad in the MR2 was another good friend of ours on his way to to a job interview in Wigan.
What makes it even more insaaaanely coincidental is that we hadn't seen each other for about 6-8 months, it was about 2 in the afternoon, and there was no bugger else on the motorway.
Spoooooooky. And Stuff.
None of us completed our respective missions, and went to the pub to celebrate and discuss this immediately. The End.
