Man of Honour
This last 4 years I've had 4 major coincidences. I don't believe in the paranormal but these are just too good to be true.
1 - About 4 years ago my wife had a brand new phone on christmas morning. We put it together with the brand new sim and turned it on. Immediately she had a call message and she listened to it. She passed the phone to me and it sounded like my drummer talking to another guy about a party he was having. I rang him up and asked him if he knew a Tony that he'd asked to come to a party etc and he said he had. We compared numbers and he had dialled one wrong number and got my wifes new phone. Of all the millions of phones etc ..................
2 - Did a first set in a pub and a gorgeous 20-ish blond called me over. She kept me talking for 20 mins before I went back on. After the gig she kept me talking again but i took it as a shoulder to lean on. At work on Monday I'm sitting at a table with 7 workmates boasting I could still pull young girls at 46. At that moment she walked in the canteen and of course everybody thought I was lying. On her way back she saw me, stopped and apologised for keeping me talking the other night. My mates were gobsmacked. She had started at our place one hour earlier. Of all the women in Stoke etc .............
3 - About a month ago I was looking for a horror film for my mate on Ebay. I looked at the sellers other items and he had football DVD's another mate would be interested in. Both buyers live less than 100 yards from each other. One of them was paying cash and the seller sent his address. Unbelievable - he lived ten doors away from the buyer and less than 100 yards from the other buyer. Of all the people in the world etc .............
4 - last week a bloke came to me and said that he'd heard I could transfer vinyl to CD. I iffed and arred about it and said it took a long time. He said that the guy had searched high and low for these albums and finally found them after 30 years. They were a local band to him who he watched in the pubs and clubs when he was younger. I then related a story about the last vinyl I'd transferred of a band I saw supporting Queen in 1974 called Hustler and went on to explain how I do it. He said he would ring his mate and see how much he was willing to pay. Today he rang and said his mate had a quote of £40 plus VAT plus P&P for the two albums and he was happy with that
I said I would do it for half that and asked for his number. I rang him up, told him the price and asked what the band was called. You guessed it - it was Hustler. Of all the bands in the world etc ...................
Anybody beat them?
