Weird Coincidence

I once got chatting to a bloke at a party at Imperial college. Turns out he lived just down the road from me. In Hong Kong... 18 years earlier...
Was swimming in the estate pool in Nassau one afternoon with my brother. Woman walks up and asks in an english accent if we went to school in England... turns out her 2 sons were starting at our school the next week...
Yes - small world and very co-inky-dental...

I was 18, we went on holiday to the south of France in one of those large mobile homes. We got talking to an English couple a few vans down, they were moving into the house next door to my parents the week after we got home.
My parents went to Greece one year and started to talk to a couple at breakfast in the hotel. At the time I'd been doing the ladies hair for 4 years.
I married my second cousin and had no idea for years

I was driving from vegas to San francisco while on holiday a couple of years ago.
I got caught in a radar trap and stopped by the police . The cop directed me by the loudhailer on his car to stay in the vehicle with my hands on the dashboard. I thought the voice sounded familiar. when the cop came alongside the car I was amazed to see my ex boyfriend from school days in the 60s. He had emigrated many years ago and was now deputy sheriff in Havasu city. and yes the bastard still wrote me a ticket !!!

No usual paper so bought a daily Mirror..walked back to car sat in wondering where to kill a few hours then opened the paper in the middle somewhere and there on the page was a story of how a fella was killed in this pub car park the week before to the day in the very spot I was parked!!

Heres one that made me think … Mrs Cuk was in a chat room speaking to a young fella in Austrailia (we are in NW England) .. they were just chattin in general and she asked him what he did for a living. He said he was a plasterer. She said that her dad was in that part of the world and that he is an orthodontist. He had just finished a job for an orthodontist … it turned out that this random bloke, thousands of miles away had just finished a job in her dads surgery!! Spooky. :shock:
I used to work for the same company as my ex hubby though we never got to know each other then.
My best mate used to drink at the same pub I working in 21 years ago but we never got chatting until we started working for the same company a few years ago.
I was nursing an elderly gent a few years ago and we were chatting about his life and work etc. It turns out he worked in the office next door to my Dad and knew him for 30 years

In probability theory, the birthday paradox states that given a group of 23 (or more) randomly chosen people, the probability is more than 50% that at least two of them will have the same birthday. For 60 or more people, the probability is greater than 99%, although it cannot actually be 100% unless there are at least 366 people. This is not a paradox in the sense of leading to a logical contradiction; it is described as a paradox because mathematical truth contradicts naïve intuition: most people estimate that the chance is much lower than 50%. Calculating this probability (and related ones) is the birthday problem. The mathematics behind it has been used to devise a well-known cryptographic attack named the birthday attack.

Littlewood's Law states that individuals can expect a miracle to happen to them at the rate of about one per month.
The law was framed by Cambridge University Professor J. E. Littlewood, and published in a collection of his work, A Mathematician's Miscellany; it seeks, inter alia, to debunk one element of supposed supernatural phenomenology and is related to the more general Law of Truly Large Numbers, which states that with a sample size large enough, any outrageous thing is likely to happen.
Littlewood's law, making certain suppositions, is explained as follows: a miracle is defined as an exceptional event of special significance occurring at a frequency of one in a million; during the hours in which a human is awake and alert, a human will experience one thing per second (for instance, seeing the computer screen, the keyboard, the mouse, the article, etc.); additionally, a human is alert for about eight hours per day; and as a result, a human will, in 35 days, have experienced, under these suppositions, 1,008,000 things. Accepting this definition of a miracle, one can be expected to observe one miraculous occurrence within the passing of every 35 consecutive days -- and therefore, according to this reasoning, seemingly miraculous events are actually commonplace.

I keep see places I have been on TV or in the papers. If I had gone somewhere else would I see those place? ... or do I simple ignore other place, place I have not been, on TV.
Would it be a greater miracle if non of the places I have been where ever on TV?

The strangest thing that happened to me in a swinging sense happened right as i started to become active in the lifestyle.
I decided to go along to a swinging group social meet in a pub, prior to this i had only met one fellow member attending :scared: It was a small localish meet and only 7 people attended. I didnt know anyone else there but had a great time chating with everyone and after we all kept in touch. I got on realy well with a couple that attended who also lived in my home town and after awhile we become good friends and arranged for the fem to come to my house for tea and cakey buns. My daughter had later arranged to go shopping with her bestfriend and her mum and was being picked up at exactly the same time as my new friend was to arrive :shock: The day came and i heard the door and went to answer it and saw my new friend and my daughters friend at the door together....i kinda panicd alittle
And wasnt listerning to what was being said as i was too busy trying to shuffle daughter and friend out the door 
The bestfriends mum and my new friend were one and the same :scared: Id never met the mum before as the daughter lived with her dad :shock:
I didnt know what to do but ended up
Wow what a shock but we become realy good friends and still are to this day,but did make me think what a small world we live in

Not sure if it's a weird coincidence or just plain weird but I had a skin tag removed from my neck a couple of months ago and I told my mum about it. My dad has one in exactly the same place and both my mum and dad and me have another under our right arm. My mum informed me that my dad also had one at his groin... right in the crease of his leg. I have one there too! :shock: I manage to catch it and make it bleed every time I shave! 
Anyway, she then proceeded to tell me that he got fed up with it rubbing when he was on his bike so he cut it off! :shock:
The next time I shaved... mine is gone. Completely disappeared. No mark, no scar, no nothing.
That's just plain weird! :undecided:

My second cousins grew up in South Africa. The girl came back to the UK with her mum when I was about 8 but her brother stayed out there with their dad till about 5 years ago when he decided to move back to the UK. He met (in a nightclub) fell in love and married my very good friends younger sister.
Myself and Mr Lyns used to live three streets apart when we were younger and attended the same nursery but a few years apart. We both moved away from the area and met up many years later.

Hows this for a weird coincidence?
Stormy and I lost twins. Their due date was 10th January.
The first day of my subsequent pregnancy 3 months later was 10th January. She was born 15th October.
7 years later I had another child..a boy, born 15th October.
The twins had the same birthday (Obviously) but then so did my next 2 children.
Coincidence or something more??

It is weird. but something similar happened to my sister. My sister and aunt had moles in many of the same places, including one under the breast which bothered them both. My aunt had hers removed - another one appeared on the opposite side a while later. But my sister's one disappeared at the same time - and a new one later grew where my aunt's new one was!
Strange forces at work out there...
Mind you, I like this idea of surgery by proxy!

I met my boss at Stanstead last year having been to a swinging do on a boat! Needless to say he asked me at the next drunk night out what I was doing in London... obviously I told him! At the next social thing he told me he'd been googling me!

I wonder who you could mean, Miss 7 miles away!!!
I promise if we do ever bump into each other I will not shout "Oh Look! It's Nola and her fantastic tits!" or look at you and pick up two grapefruits suggestively with a nod and a wink.
No actually, I would do that... Just pretend I am simple, that is what my kids do.
I was 19 at a nightclub in London with my brother and a group of friends when I noticed a couple of girls giving me the eye. I tipped of my brother to watch out for me not knowing why they kept staring.
They then advanced towards me and ask if I was ***** My name, I replied yes, they then went on to introduce themselves and they were girls I lived next door to when I was 7.
They said I had not changed a bit.
:shock:
