This is really wierd.......Co-incidences.....
Discussion
A few years back I was chatting up a friend of a friend. I asked where she lived (not my best chat-up line), and the conversation then went:
She: "Clapham"
Me: "Near the Common? There's some nice places looking over the Common"
She: "Yep. My flat looks over the Common"
Me: "Which side?"
She: "North, Battersea Rise"
Me: "Which road? I know a few bits quite well"
She: "Leathwaite Road"
Me (surprised): "Which house exactly?"
She: "Number X"
Realising where this was going, I then said "Have you redecorated the lounge yet? I never really liked that blue."
She had bought my brother's flat about three years earlier...

I said to miss stooz last night on walking in the door:
"was discussing marilyn mansons new track at work today, the cover of a depeche mode song...
Wouldnt it be good if his new album was a complete covers of classic tracks in typical manson style?"
We switched on TMF (the music factory) channel, to be presented with "top 20 covers show", currently playing marilyn mansons soft cell cover....
"
driving back from stanstead very late one night, I switched off my CD player playing a rare live version of nirvana, to find the local radio station the RDS had picked up, playing exactly the same song..
Turned out I hadnt switched off the CD player at all, but paused it and turned it back on
The best one happened to a mate from School called Darren.
He took a year off and was touring Oz when he went into a bar in Alice Springs and sat down desperate for a beer.
"Hello Darren" came from the seat next to him. It was a lad called Charlie...... who he used to sit next to at school!
Spooky!

My brother was walking down a beach on the east coast of Australia, He and his girlfriend, and they see another chap walking towards them...
Chap get's level with them,
"Hiya Ben" says the chap..
"alright Rog'" says brother
"Hang on a mo Rog, what the f**k are you doing here???"
No-one else on the beach, the other side of the world, and he meets a mate from school...
Weird!

ok, heres mine.
My sister in law is early 40s and adopted. She has lived in London all her adult life (ie no where near where I live). A few years ago she decided she was going to try and find her birth mother.
It took her about 18 months to track her down. Her true mother was my next door neighbour who I was good friends with.

I was talking about a former work colleague/freind that I had lost contact with. A few days later I got a new company mobile and a new number. One of the first calls I got on the phone was from a guy who had dialled a wrong number, he was surprised to hear me answer, it was the bloke I had been talking about.

A ex's parents had a similar thing - they went on a trip around the world and in one of the backstreet markets in Calcutta or somewhere they were haggling with some guy for a rug. Anyway, he turns on the charm - whats your name where do you come from etc, and they say England. The guy goes "My brother lives in england - do you know him?" Which I thought was funny enough, however he then gave out his address - 2 doors away from their address!
Another one, I was working with a guy for a few years anbd a few weeks ago I showed him a picture of my house - at which point he tells me he's been in my house! Turns out, he knew the previous owner. Not too scary apart from the fact that we were working in Gaydon, I live in Telford, and he lives down south somewhere!
Strange world.
