I bought a book "Ghost stories of the first and second world wars" because there was a story about the place in Belgium where a relative was killed. There are over 300 stories giving names, dates, places etc, many of them say they saw their loved ones appear to them suddenly and sometimes spoke and then they were gone, consequently when they recieved the information that he had been killed it did not come as a surprise, also the date and time coincided with the visit!!!

One soldier was bending down doing something when a hand pushed his head down so hard that his steel helmet dug right into the earth, at the same time bullets started to fly and one whizzed passed his head and if he had not been pushed down his head would have ben blown off, when the firing ceased he lifted his head and turned to thank who ever pushed him down but there was nobody nearby, later, when he was home a relative had marked that date on the calender. Weird!!

I cannot comment because I do not know what to make of it allUndecided

Hi Sue

In fact my pc must have sorted itself out now because I can now see the very pregnant Sue standing at the door! Shame about the dress, but nothing spooky about that.....is there? What do other members think about your style of maternity wear, perhaps they will respond shortly?

Well Ron, come to think of it, I was wearing a white shirt so maybe I blended in with the door and that is what you are seeing. Aactually I was as big as the door becasue when the pictures were taken I was full term with a 9 pound baby, I was HUGE.

Thanks for that Peggy, now that IS spooky! I have to admit though I have heard similar stories, but I guess Mr/Mrs average doesn't want to talk about it for fear of being mocked.

I see a bump, oh, its ok, its just my reflection in the monitor.

Peggy, I think all pregnant women look beautifull. I know its a hormone thing, but they glow with an inner beauty, that only ever shows in pregnancy.

Do UFO's fit into this catergory? You will probable say I was seeing things but this is true.....  I DID see one, well 2 to be exact. It was late Nov about 1981 or so, my young boys were in bed and I stepped outside to put something in the dustbin, why I looked up I have no idea, but when I did I could see 2 cigar shaped objects directly above me. No sound..no movemement...they were lit up like florescent tubes. It was a really freezing cold evening, must have been about 10.30 or so, clear starlit night with no clouds and no wind, nothing except these 2 shapes over my house. I must have been looking at them for a good 10 mins, my neck started to ache and I was getting cold so decided to duck indoors for a coat, that took me all of about 10 seconds but when I stepped outside again and looked up,,,,,,nothing was there! Just a very clear silent starlit night. There was no sound, no movement of anything.I have never to this day seen them again, I would love to though!... and this time I will have my Digi camera to prove it!

Hi Lyn

Were you not scared.  I would be off and never look back.  I wouldn't have gone back out again thats for sure.  I think the brandy bottle would have been opened.  Ha haCool

Hi Lyn

How extraordinary!  I think this topic deserves to be a thread in its own right (maybe you should start one? Smile), as pretty much everyone has an opinion on the existence/non-existence of UFO's Smile

Anyway, I have two questions...

1) How big were the cigar shaped objects?  

2) Were you on any strong medication at the time? Just kidding! Wink

No, I wasnt in the least bit scared Karen, more fascinated really, couldnt take my eyes of them, I was trying to work out what exactly they were! I was angry with myself for going inside to get a coat cos I really wanted to see what would happen to them,didn't really want to stop looking at them,  but I will never know now. Couldn't really judge the size as there wasnt anything to judge them against if you know what I mean. I havent a clue how high they were either. I would really love someone one day to give me these answers...and noooo Sarah lol, I wasnt on medication at the time, not even had a drink, I was stone cold sober. Its odd, its a long time ago now but I can still see them as clearly now as I did on that night...its a pity digi cameras weren't around then eh? There's plenty of cynical people around would doubt I was telling the truth here, but I can assure you I am, I just cant prove it.
