Ok here comes the strange path of me and my father, at the moment I am 37 and my dad is 55 ok that is not strange but this I seems is. At 29 years old my dad was diagnosed with arthritis then 17 years on when I turned 29 I was diagnosed with arthritis too.
My dad’s mortgage finished when he was 52 and that is the exact age I will be when my mortgage finishes, now bear with me on this one because it is maths.
He was born in 1953 and I was born in 1971, now comes the hard bit for all those that cannot count –
1953 – 1 + 9 + 5 + 3 = 18
1971 – 1 + 9 + 7 + 1 = 18
Both birth dates when added up adds to 18.
You got to admit that is weird shit.
The two years “adding up to 18″ isn’t all that odd. For any year from 1900 to 1999 , adding the digits will give you a number from 10 to 28.
