Has anything unexplainable ever happened to you ?

Hi,
I guess it happens to us all. And I'm not just talking about footsteps on the floor upstairs when there is no one home. There are probably lots of other things which either have sent a shiver down the spine or made one wonder.

The experience which sticks in my mind is turning round whilst on the way to the pub with then GF to go home to get more cash 'cos I was convinced that we were going to meet someone I knew at the pub. Sure enough as we walked through the door, an aquaintence from work was sitting in an almost deserted pub. This was a pub we infrequently visited, no where near where the guy we met live (or any other aquaintences for that matter).

Strange.

(I also have a clear memory of watching myself get off a bus whilst on the way home from uni one evening. Guess I was tired or something.)

I was on my way to a friend's wedding in Amiens, France in October '98. I had taken the train from Kettering to London St Pancras before getting the tube to Waterloo. As I was heading towards Waterloo I began to panic a bit because my Eurostar train was due to leave in about 15 minutes. A middle-aged woman saw the perplexed look on my face and asked me what was wrong. I told her and she replied,

"You won't miss your train."

The tube train pulled into Waterloo, I got off it and ran towards the main station concourse as fast as I could. Then somebody barred my passage while pointing up a ramp to my left. Up the ramp was Waterloo International. The somebody was the middle-aged woman on the tube train I'd just run from.

I caught my Eurostar train thanks to her. On the train up from Paris-Nord I met a total stranger who was attending the same wedding. I now knew one other person other than the bride herself.

At the reception I was introduced to the groom - a Chinese guy, and his Best Man - a guy who came from a small village only 6 miles from my parents' house.

Yes but I can't unexplain it.

Synchronicity can often stretch one's incredulity. Smile

My adopted brother and his older half-brother were separated when my brother was 2. After 20 years without any contact at all, they were reunited a couple of years ago, when my brother was 22.

As a teenager my brother had had a star tattooed on his shoulder. So, it turned out, had his half-brother. My brother had also had a large tatoo of his starsign done on his chest. In exactly the same place, his half-brother had tatooed his starsign.

Freaky, huh?
