Default Si's Strange Book of Coincidences

Weird coincidences keep happening to me so I think I may write a book on them one day.

Was in Tesco today buying some stuff for the mrs cos she is not well bless her.

Tissues, lemsip, vicks etc.

Went to the self-serve and decided to pay cash, it came to £7.52, had loads of loose change in me pockets, 1p's etc, fed it all in, every last coin I had on me and it came to exactly £7.52. Spooky. (it had been a slow day)

I had a similar experience today. Driving home from filling up the car, I saw a van belonging to some colleagues from out of our region, I knew they were working in my town, as we are off.

We all drive identical silver VW vans, just as I saw the van, Hawkwinds 'Silver machine' was playing on the car stereo.

I met a group of bikers on Sunday and loads of them had SV's.
It's still freaking me out as they were all riding to Southwold too
(sorry, couldn't resist)

The strangest thing about it all was that two of the riders thought that they could get away with wearing white boots

I have the same thing but with clock times. Always like it when you look at a clock and its 11:11 or somesuch. However please consider this.. http://youarenotsosmart.com/2010/09/...ooter-fallacy/
