With all due respect this thread has gone rather silly, pretty much like most of the haters on here! School holidays aren't for a while yet so slightly confused by all this.... Only explanation I have come to which believe it or not isn't paranormal is you all must be really bored whilst your wife is up stairs banging one out over her Daniel O'Donnell poster? tongue out
Gone?

Probably! But please understand that I mean this as banter and nothing more as I honestly.com no any members wife's on PH so I couldn't possibly no what they are up to whilst the husband is arguing against his cyber buddies whether ghosts exist or not. biggrin

And with the advent of technology/ smartphones , wouldn't this increase be more easily evidenced considering everyone has a camera on them 24/7 now?

He's answered that earlier in the thread.

"That's our world, not theirs".

Also explains that items that move mysteriously from one place to another never do so in the millions, if not billions, of shops, offices, warehouses and homes covered by CCTV.

Convinced now?
That was me, not V6.
Sorry.

There's so much drivel spouted that it's hard to remember who came out with what nonsense.
It's definitely a subject that winds people up isn't it? wink

I take it that's a tongue in cheek comment, but not at all. I actually find it all very interesting, so interesting that I ask for a repeat when something unexplainable happens, which I usually get.

No one else I know would be able to bring themselves to do that, especially those who have royally ripped the piss out of me.

Their response? "You asked for a repeat?! I'd get the fk out of there!"

These are friends that lean heavily to the sceptical side of things.

This morning my wife's new Sonos system suddenly started blaring rock music at full volume when I was alone in the house - nearly crapped myself as I was sitting near the main speaker when it happened! 2 minutes later I got a text from my youngest (at school) saying "Do you hear music?" smile

Will kill him later, didn't know that you could access via the web.
You'll regret that when he comes back as a ghost to haunt you. biggrin

If it is all nonsense why do seemingly rational people say that they think they have experienced something. (Genuine question, not challenging anybody to an online scrap).

Best example is PC Dick Ellis telling of his experience at Stocksbridge bypass. Why would a serving police officer lie about what he had seen.

Singular people thinking they have seen something does not mean said thing actually occurred.

They may not be 'lying'. They may genuinely think they have seen something.

But to an outsider, of course it sounds ridiculous without any proof of which there is NEVER any. Convenient. Or probably inconvenient for the person who thinks they experienced it.

There's a difference between a lie and a mistake.

Once when I was a young boy I was wandering through some woods and I saw an eerie sort of fog ahead of me. There was a man sitting down on a bench, smoking a pipe,and this fog looked like it was attacking him. I was terrified and ran away, and to my knowledge that poor man was never seen again.
I think about that a lot as I grow older and more alcoholic and the other night I suddenly remembered that this fog had morphed into a ghostly monk wearing sunglasses with wasps for nostrils and lobsters for hands.
I am the most sceptical person about the paranormal but I now realise that I have seen the fourth dimension . Try and explain that on with your so-called science

There's a huge number of people that have experienced something or other. They would undoubtedly have been cynical up to that point until the 'oh st' event. The difference is before that, being normal, they wouldn't have run around calling everybody a liar. I was the same until about 35. If the no sayers ask around it's highly likely they will find they know someone who can tell them first hand.

Pretty much what happened a few weeks ago.
Something I would not have thought possible, now has happened. Nothing to do with tricking senses, something else.

Halb, how come nobody is having a pop at you here?

I think I can probably guess why if you originally posted this in the science section.

I'm just curious?

Because he's carefully avoided saying what he saw, while asking others to offer up their personal stories. Make of that what you will.
One assumption + another = a random unfounded open question.

That's science is it?

I don't know. I don't tend to engage with the fkwits, and usually only respond to those that merit response. I did post what happened in the sense of scientific enquiry back at the start, but then once I saw how the fkwits were turning the thread (as one poster wisely pronostigated, I should have known! biggrin ) and it's movement, I deleted them. Though I am still happy to come here and read the genuine posts of the likes of Derek et al.

Pretty much, or what passes for it round here, democracy is science. biggrin

I assume unless you witness something yourself first hand then everyone else is mistaken...
