Yesterday when i was doing my work in the living room, my girlfriend asked me to change the battery of the wall analog clock which has been dead for quite some time, so since i'm working on something, i didn't bother to change it.
So obviously she's angry about it and kept on whining... after about 20 minutes or so, i went to change the battery, after i replaced it, i look around for the time and find that its 5:51 pm on my iPad, so i went back and try to tune the clock to 5:51, here's the strange thing, the clock is already at 5.51 sharp!!! At any other time if i went to change the battery after she told me to, it wouldn't be 5.51, but I did went to replace it exactly at 5.51!!!
There's another really creepy story. I was at the mines wellness resort staying for a week there for a seminar. The first thing i realize on the digital clock in my room is that it was off by a mile, probably like few hours from the current time. The first night was faultless, i had a great sleep. But the second night was creepy, i woke up in the middle of the night, i looked at the clock, the shows 3.21, and i look at my mobile phone for a more accurate time, its 3.21 exactly!!! The clock was never accurate and I didn't ask for house keeping, so nobody could've touched the watch.
Creepy? or coincidence?

A stopped clock is accurate twice a day.

Exactly!!! But what are the chances to face these "coincidences" twice in life?

Apologies for pouring cold water over your incidences. I would normally pooh pooh such happenings and put it down as coincidences.
Having said that, I had a similar encounter way back in Dec 1983. After finishing a late duty, I knocked off in the wee hours of the morning. Sometime in the night, my Citizen dual time digi-analog ( a hot watch those days ) beeped a couple of times. Stupid alarm I thought. Switched on the table lamp to find out the watch had just conked out. The digital display was blanked and the analog hands froze at 3ish in the morning and the table clock confirmed it as about that time. I was in a Holiday Inn hotel room. A dying watch battery coupled with the chill from the room aircon probably did the watch in methinks at that time.
So back to bed with the thought of having to change the battery later in the day hanging over me. My colleague rang and woke me up at tennish. Shucks, I overslept! Washed up and had a quickie bite with my colleague and mentioned about my disrupted sleep to him. But the watch was back to ticking away. Strangely though, the analog hands had moved about 2 hours ahead and the digital display, more logically, was behind by about 6 hours if the battery had a second wind or charge.
I can't figure out the glitch till this day. But if that was an omen for an event about to happen, I'm glad the watch came alive again. I survived a serious accident that evening! In fact, all involved in the accident survived with the most minimal of injuries.
Was I, like the watch, granted a second chance?

Heck, I'm feeling spooked again!
Is the time setting in this forum on daylight savings? I distinctively remember posting an hour earlier than displayed.

Godsend, sometimes message is there, so may be the message is there for you to pick up....

Er... hope that's not the case, but i do feel funny before things happens, like when i was in the mines, i feel a cold breeze before i enter the room for the first time, and after that incident, i can't even sleep nomatter how tired i am.
I stay in a 3 storey house with my girlfriend, the ample space alone is creepy enough for me most of the days, so when that incident happened, I did freaked out but, not as much as i should be.

I did have a very good streak of good luck since my first encounter though, that must've meant something.

Folks, don't get me wrong coz me just said I am feeling spooked.
No mention of encounters or such. I just could not come up with any logical explanation for the time discrepancy between the analog and digital display esp the analog hands having gained about 2 hours.
Still it was a miraculous escape for all of us that evening.
