I bought a lottery ticket once and filled in the numbers with familiar birthdates.

However it did not win.

The following week, I did the same.

Lo and behold!!

 

That one did not win either.

 

Co-incidence or what?

 

It's still happening to me after 10 years. How many coincidences is that?

Almost 17 years ago, on my honeymoon we were driving around the western USA. We'd stopped the car in a remote area in the hills above Lake Tahoe and gone for a wander, when a car came out of nowhere suddenly pulled up and a bloke got out and started shouting. I thought this was the end and we were going to be brutally murdered, then I realised he was shouting about Sheffield Wednesday (I had a SWFC shirt on).

 

Not only had I encountered a Wednesdayite in this remote area thousands of miles away from home, but it turned out this couple were staying in the same hotel as us in the town of South Lake Tahoe which was miles away on the other side of the lake (and we were only there for 2 days), but they lived two streets away from us in Sheffield.

 

A happy ending would be that we became lifelong best friends, but we've never seen them since

I was booking in to a hotel in Dubai and got speaking to the Indian concierge. It turned out his brother was a very nice barman who had served me and my wife at our hotel in India the year before.

I asked him to book me a taxi to the dive centre and on arrival I met my dive instructor who had taken me through my Divemaster course the year before in Egypt!

My colleague was astounded. After we had been diving and sighted black tipped reef sharks he had the cheek if I had met them,previously.

My two sons married young ladies who were both born on the same day and the same year.

A couple of weeks ago, I was driving back from a car body paint shop after taking a new Citroen C3 rear bumper to be colour matched to replace one that got damaged on my girlfriend's car.

 

Whilst driving back, I was thinking I too needed new bumpers for my Citroen 2CV and decided to look up the price of some when I got home.

 

On arriving home, I walked in and immediately called the girlfriend to let her know her Citroen bumper was at the paint shop, whilst idly googling 2CV bumpers for myself. I'd only just started chatting to her when there was a knock at the back door.

Told girlfriend I'd call her back, and opened the door … my jaw dropped!

 

Two total strangers were stood there, one bearing what transpired to be a gift … a brand new Citroen 2CV bumper, still in it's thirty year old factory wrapping! (not a repro one)

Turns out they were clearing out their parent's house a few doors away, and had found the bumper in a cupboard. Seeing as I had a 2CV parked outside my house, they wondered if I'd like it.

 

These are not common cars by any means, so the odds of this (nice) little incident left me absolutely gobsmacked. Neither do I deal in Citroen bumpers … I generally go for weeks on end with little or no thought for them whatsoever.

 

Guzen or Hitsuzen?

I have a fairly unusual surname. Years ago when my son was about 6 or 7 we went to buy him a second hand bike we saw for sale in The Star classifieds, having looked it over and deciding to have it, I asked who to make the cheque out to. The seller had the same surname as me. Later I looked the name up in the phone book and there were only three in Sheffield.

 

I have a very unusual surname as well, bought a phone and the (English) guy at the desk pronounced it perfectly, a first. I must have looked puzzled so he explained his mate had the same name...

Same here...but not so much in Corsica, whence I explained it to my Mrs some years ago whilst visiting a swimwear shop in Calvi, after both she and the shop owner turned around to answer a visitor who'd just walking in and asked for "Mrs [L00b]?"

 

And yes, we did get a discount on account of the coincidence. Bloody good job too, that swimwear was eye-wateringly expensive! Mrs L knows how to pick'em

In the late 80's, due to work commitments, my wife and I lived in the west midlands for about a year. One night my wife woke me up in a bit of a state and asked me to swap places in bed as something had tried cuddling up to her. I put it down to a bad dream.

 

The following day, I had occasion to phone her mom and dad back in Sheffield. My brother in law answered the phone and told me that they weren't in. He said that they had gone to see a vicar, something had scared them during the night and they thought the house was haunted......
