The Number 47

47

For sometime now my brother and I realised that the number 47 appears more often than other numbers. It tends to pop up when you don’t expect it and we go “hey number 47!” I wish I started writing down those times a few years back but i’ll start fresh from now on I’ll log them down here and maybe other 47er’s can add to the list.

From wikipedia:

There exists a 47 society,an outgrowth of a movement started at Pomona College, California, USA, which propagates the belief (or, to some, the inside joke) that the number forty-seven occurs in nature with noticeably higher frequency than other natural numbers, that it is the quintessencial random number

Old Friends House Number

So on my walk today I went passed an old primary school friends house. We used to mind him after school but we never really got on that well. Once we hit high school we went separate ways and he went to some other school. Something I never realised before is that his house number is 47!
