1. Yes, it is. I have had the 6 degree of separation happen to me all over the world .. it is really more like 2 or 3 degrees.
2. straaannnnnnnnnnnnnnngeee and spooky
3. Sure...Once I was involved in a steamy three-way with two women neither of which had any personal involvement with me...when suddenly I noticed that one of them reminded me of someone. It was just a little sound she made. I didn't say anything at first because I know some people get funny about the whole sister/brother thing? I waited until we had all finished and we had done with the wiping and 'show and tell'. Then I took this girl to one side and said...."Is your name Spears by any chance?" She said no. Phew!...Close thing! A reeeaaaly small world!!
4. the closest i've come to that was seeing some old drinking buddies on an episode of "cops" (and they weren't the police), and then later their pictures in the newspaper about some chase through towns and the countryside involving helecopters and guns and such as that... i knew there was a good reason i got away from drinking with those guys...
5. I'm even more surprised that any one is still watching Flog It. But my mother's brother married my father's sister (with me so far?). They had a daughter, let's call her Sarah (that's not her real name, but will do). She married a chap called David which is my name (well, it isn't, but the names have been changed to protect the innocent as they used to say on a 1950s TV show - suffice that we both share the same first name). Then I got married - and I married a girl called Sarah. So there is a Sarah and David and a David and Sarah in the family - and the Sarah and Daivid are first cousins twice over.
6. When i was younger a friend of mine was making crank calls (as you do).. he would type in a random number then say something funny to whom ever answered.. so the story goes he dialed a number and said hello, "David !?" said the voice on the other end.. It was his mum!!!! who heard the phone ringing in a phone booth as she was walking down the street.. what are the chances of that! pretty slim i say. I love that sort of thing..
7. yes my cousin was also on antiques road show in Bradford
