My wife and I have been out all day (it's now 5.05pm) so I'm a little behind in writing a post. What to write about? I wasn't at all sure, so I decided to check my emails first. Perhaps I might come across a coincidence or something. There was an email from Amazon UK saying that our order had been dispatched. It's something we had been expecting for over a month - the microwave we wanted had been temporarily out of stock. I left my office to shout down to my wife, "Good news, the... Read Full Story

We went into Truro yesterday morning, about 15 miles from where we live in Cornwall, and saw the above sign outside of a wine merchants as we entered the city. We could have made our way into the city centre by several different routes and could, therefore, have easily missed the sign. "So?" you might ask. Well, the day before yesterday we were talking to the man who brings us any spare eggs he has over from his chickens. He normally leaves them by our door and we pay for them when we...

Some coincidence stories are hard to believe but nevertheless the people involved are always adamant that the stories are absolutely true. One such case is the romance of David Brown and Michelle Kitson - real people, that's them in the photo on the left. This involves a coincidence example with phone numbers. One morning in 2007 David woke with an unfamiliar mobile phone number going over and over through his head, he couldn't shake it off. Curiosity got the better of him so he decided he...

Here's a strange coincidence story from John Moss and I'm assured that it's true. I can't explain how it happened maybe you can. "One year in my youth when I had been working a couple of years, I went camping with a friend of the same age at a small seaside resort where we fished and went after lobster from a small rowboat. Our tent was an ex army bell tent. My friend mentioned that we must be careful with lobster as his father had once been bitten by one and suffered three months of... Read Full Story

Titanic in dock This is one of those 'famous' happenings which I find fascinating. In this case it's about the Titanic coincidences. But first lets put a slightly different slant on things. How and why things happen is always interesting. Are they destined to happen and if so why? With the Titanic the problem, as we know, was an iceberg and we accept this without a second thought. But if we think about it properly wasn't it a bit of a coincidence that the iceberg - most likely... Read Full Story

I have been reminiscing about times when I have asked the Universe to help me and how this has arrived by 'coincidence'. I won't bore you with them all. However, one sticks in my mind from when our son was about ten or eleven. We were in the south of Spain on holiday and, in a small hired car, set off into the mountains. Can't remember exactly where we were heading but the roads became narrower and narrower as we went higher and higher. We hadn't seen another car or vehicle for over an... Read Full Story

The posts on this blog are about coincidences or synchronicity . I've written about quite a few examples, some small and others more impressive. But when you think about it, we are all here on earth at this time by one big coincidence or maybe even millions of them. The odds of us being here now must be billions and billions to one. For example, if our great-great-great-great-great-grandfather hadn't have met up by chance/coincidence with our great-great-great-great-grandmother then we... Read Full Story

One of the things which interests me is to how we can introduce into our lives more meaningful coincidences or synchronicity. It seems logical to me that if we can, say, create a car parking space then we can also make absolutely anything else happen - even though it may not be necessarily 'good' for us. I still remember the very first time I tried to find an answer to a question via asking the universe (or whatever you may prefer to call it). It was as a young man and I'd read about mind...

Roger Lewis is an author and former Fellow of Wolfson College at Oxford University.  He has described himself as being more atheistical than Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens combined. He wrote, "If it's supernatural powers I want, the fairies in A Midsummer Night's Dream suffice."  (That's some of Shakespeare's fairies above.) So he's a definite non believer in any of this sort of thing.  When you are dead, you are dead. Full stop. But ... Last year Roger Lewis was very ill... Read Full Story
