In a previous job, I once had to visit someone with the surname of Gardener, that lived in Uphill.

The way the jobsheet was printed out, provided plenty of laughs.

Unless the blokes are both called Zeus or something, I'm out

A bloke I know who teaches at a university met one of his new tutees for the first time, waiting outside his office door. "Come on in Mr Patel" confused the lad a bit as they'd never met.
They don't assign students to tutors consecutively from an alphabetical list any more - he had all Patels that year

A young MX rider died on Sunday by the name of Brad Hooper. My initials are the same as his and I also ride MX. The Brad who unfortunately dieds mothers name and initials are the same as my mums. Brad Hoopers race number 23 is the same race number as my dad's.

My brother crashed yesterday and was rushed into hospital with suspected broken back, arm and wrist/thumb. Transpires he only broke his thumb but is badly battered and bruised.

Some coincidence...
