I think Mick me ole mucker went to the pub, think I'll join him because it seems unless you agree with certain people on here and their opinions, then there is no discussion without a personal attack!! Some petty person making reference to my board name is pathetic....I did not enter this discussion to have my board name questioned...

Ginny, don't know you from Adam. But I think you need to respect other peoples points of view before spitting your dummy out and getting out your pram!!

Chris...

I love your point and you know what...I would have been burnt at the stake 200 years ago!

I don’t go to a church or sell my gift, I try to ignore it.....but sometimes I just can’t shake it


So.. I go with it as and when

Like I say I am open minded.Whether door left open who knows.No heating in my house back then .No wooden floor.Just Lino lol
People believe what they believe.I have no problem with that.

Guardian Angel - I asked Mick earlier to explain my gmother episode to me - can you?

It is believed that at one time all of us were born with a sixth sense and time, 'civilization' and the punishment of so-called witches, usually wise women has to a greater extent eradicated this sense.

There are those amongst us in who this sense remains, some who have an odd glimmer from time to time and those who have been left with nothing.

I have never said I believe in ghosts nor have I said I disbelieved. What I have said that strange things have occurred during mylifetime to me for which I have no logical explanation and would love one - if one exists.

I did Ginny yes........but hey ho, I'm not one to knit pick on people's spelling errors, especially when they do not agree with my side of a discussion!!

some petty persons about a?

Guardian Angel

Guardian Angel Report 7 Feb 2011 21:47

the door was left open..............simple answer..

when heating has been on in a house, wooden floors etc "shrink" so a sound is made..................

there are plausible "real" answers for most things....unless you get a ghost/spirit on camera (let's face it who ever has after all these years) then all these "spooky" goings on are normal factors in and around our normal living conditions.....

If you think you have a spook in the house, your mind set will tune itself that way........get a picture and then let's have a serious debate...

You wrote; books" don't be cocky Ginny, I think most inteligent people understand the expression of "in my books"..

I am open minded about this.I have never experienced any super natural experience,but when I was about 6 a school friend came to live with us for a while as her Mum was in hospital.
My Mum when she was maybe in her 60's told me that one night when my friend was with us(she shared my bedroom )she heard footsteps in the hallway and the sound of my bedroom door opening.When Mum went to investigate,she found the front door open and also bedroom door.The following day she was informed that my friend's Mum had died .She died at the time Mum heard the footsteps.My Mum was the kind of person who never believed in ghosts,but she was convinced that something happened that night.She wondered if it was the Mother coming to say good bye to her child.So I may have had a spirit /ghost or something in my bedroom !!

Without going into minute detail, my nick name/board name was given to me some while back by some buddies outside of GR...

No Ginny, I don't believe in Angels like I don't belive in ghosts!

Gee Report 7 Feb 2011 21:28

Gee Report 7 Feb 2011 21:25

Oh sorry... your board name suggests that you have some belief in 'Angels'?

Dont worry GA, I'm Ok and dont worry about me, I am not out of my pram but maybe I am something else

Guardian Angel

Guardian Angel Report 7 Feb 2011 21:21

Not at all, just giving my opinion Ginny as I am entitled to do. Sorry it isn't the same as yours, no need to get out your pram!!

What has my board name got to do with the price of fish?

I have no problem whether people believe or not - personally I prefer to just remain open-minded. My objection is the ridicule that some people show others who do believe.
