mackem 23,592 Posted November 16, 2018 Report Share Posted November 16, 2018 Everyone's had them,there's no rhyme nor reason to them,unless there's some mathematical formula behind them?I walked out off a small airport today,spotted a western guy walking down the road away from me,quickened my pace to catch up with him to ask about decent hotels in the town "Excuse me........" He turned and you could have knocked us both over with a feather,it was a gyrocopter pilot who was in the room next to mine in a flying school in Thailand back in April.I have had quite a few coincidences like that,anyone else had similar? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Was at a retail park about 30 miles from home picking up nappys in boots. c**t ive never seen before jumped the queue for the self service. Just ignored it.left boots wemt nowhere else and On the way home i stopped at asda about 5 miles from my house for beers. Same c**t from boots tried to jump the asda queue so i said to him there was a queue and he was a bit of a prick . 2 young boys behind me were laughing. Less than a week later i went into petrol station where i stay. Same to boys from asda walk out as im walking in and the queue skipper was inside . After that i saw him in a gregs at a town in the opposite direction. Never seen him again since but was weird as f**k at the time. He was probably thinking the same cant shake this c**t I have the same problem with my mrs 1 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Blackbriar 8,568 Posted November 16, 2018 Report Share Posted November 16, 2018 How many times do you bump into someone you DON'T know ? How many times are you singing a song to yourself, then put the radio on.........and a different song is playing ? The list goes on, but you get the idea............

Arry 18,239 Posted November 17, 2018 Report Share Posted November 17, 2018 I was fishing a well known Ray mark at Mothercombe one night, when two more lads turned up and settled in beside use. Said the usual hellos etc, introduced are selfs to each other. Then one said were your second cousins, of course my reply was feck off. Then he said you have a aunty Elsey and uncle Jerry that live in Exeter don't you, I do I said. Worked it all out and feck me they were, we became good mates and even ended up being on the Wyvern Fishing comity with one of them. Cheers Arry 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DIDO.1 20,564 Posted November 17, 2018 Report Share Posted November 17, 2018 My cousin is currently in Belgium for the 1st World War remembrance. 3 unknown soldiers had recently been found and were being buried in graves at Tyne cot. One was a Lancashire fusilier so my cousin was especially interested as he researches that regiment. Apparently the dead soldier had a pencil in his uniform pocket. The pencil was inscribed 'eagley cricket club'. My cousins family home is 100yards from that club. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
