PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned. Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

My OH and I have lived with a resident ghost for more than 40 years.
Although we have never seen it, when the wrong bin gets put out, a room left untidy etc, the ghost always gets the blame.
The ghost has a name of course. We call it 'Someone'.
It makes for great marital harmony.
:rotfl:
My grandparents had similar- they always blamed “Barkie Bee”!
I have seen a black car, heading towards us on a single track road. We pulled in and waited for it to pass us. And waited. And waited. Cars behind overtook and we laughed, thinking that they would have to reverse down again. And waited. Nothing came down - not even the cars behind us. We eventually drove on and had no problems. I seem to remember reading later that there had been a family killed in the area years before, and they were in a black car....
