Coincidences.....what are your strangest?

Gotta admit, id never heard that term, had to look it up

That's a coincidence, I had to do the same!

I finished solving a cryptic crossword yesterday. One of the answers was APERITIF.

A few minutes later a friend came round for the evening. I made her a cup of tea. We would be having a meal together later but she asked if she could have a square of my dark chocolate as an APERITIF. She had misused the word and it was the first time in the 46 years that I have known her that I have heard her use it!

On two occasions at two separate properties whilst working as a plumber handyman in York ive worked at homes which later sold and ive been approached by the new owners to do work for them. The new owners found me through a leaflet on a notice board and through recommendation. The original owners and new owners had never met or communicated with each other.

I've bought at least one house where the previous owner has left a list of tradesmen, along with the instruction booklets and so forth as a helpful handover.

Or perhaps they were cowboys and he was trying to get even with you for haggling the price down

They reckon that that is what Lord Nelson actually said when he died.

"Kismet Hardy".

Her name was Kitty
Made her money being pretty and witty
They gave her the keys to this city
Then they said she didn't do it legitly, oh
I bought a ticket
She's dancing in her garters and fishnets
50 in the cast, zero missteps
Looking back, I guess it was kismet
