Bizarre coincidences
Comments
My wife used to flat share with a couple of girls when they were all student nurses together. Her boyfriend at the time took her for a surprise trip to Venice for a few days. They were standing on the Rialto Bridge looking at the Grand Canal when she happened to look down and noticed the woman next to her was wearing a pair of shoes identical to some she’d left at the flat. When she looked at the person wearing them, it was one of her flatmates…who’d also gone on a trip to Venice, neither of them knowing the other was going. The other girl had borrowed the shoes because she’d always liked them and took a chance while my wife was away.
Glitches in the Matrix.. you do know we live in a simulation…?
Why just the other day I bumped into somebody I know very well ....in my bathroom mirror
He looked just like me .......only 40 years older !

I was wandering around Lake Wendouree in Ballarat last week photographing wildlife when I crossed paths with a chap with a pair of binoculars. Naturally, as birdwatchers always do, we stopped and exchanged notes. He seemed like a nice chap and we ended up chatting about various things for some time. After five or ten minutes, he put out his hand and introduced himself by name. By reflex I'd already replied with my name as the penny dropped - this was an old friend from rock climbing days. Back in the day we had gone up a number of tricky faces together and worked together as volunteers on tree planting weekends around the state, so we had known one another quite well. Neither of us has changed more than you'd expect after 25 or 30 years and yet neither of us recognised the other one until we said our names.
So not a coincidence, but quite bizarre.

Also the time I accidentally bumped into a person in a shop in Corfu and turned around to apologise only to be faced with a bloke who worked less than twenty feet from me in the office !
