    I worked for decades at Stocksbridge (the last six years doing shifts seven days a week) and I saw absolutely nothing that could possibly be regarded as supernatural.

    If there was anyone/thing like that, don't you think I'd remember it? :D:D

    He wouldn't necessarily be making it up though, your mind can play all sorts of tricks on you.

    my mate said he almost crashed his car after someone appeared in the road on the Stocksbridge bypass - and he actually drove straight through them.

    That's not a ghost, that's hit and run. Did he go down for it?

    Any photos or videos of these multiple sightings? Perfectly feasible that some bloke was cocking about in a hooded outfit to scare people.

    These days, many cars have cameras.....

    And with so many cameras you would think by now, something anywhere would show up.

    Even on in-house CCTV systems.

    I'm neither a believer or dismiss it. Quite open to it. But I'm far from convinced with no real evidence "floating" around

    Some believe in ghosts. Some believe in Boris Johnson. Which is weirder?

    It may give you comfort and i understand the desire to belive it, but when assessed logically its on the same level as Father Christmas.

    Psychics is a weird one. Totally agree with you mostly, especially the stereotypical 'is there someone in the room called John' routine that stokes gullible people into a frenzy before they continue the rest of their 'show'.

    But.

    I then had a weird experience with one that I simply cannot explain. And it haunts me to this day, 30 years on.

    Ghosts. As sadly Boris Johnson actually exists.

    Johnson. Believing in ghosts does no one any harm. Believing in Johnson allows him to corrupt and destroy everyone around him. Now that's weird.

    I just believe in me. Yoko and me. That's reality.

    Is the Stocksbridge bypass some type of breakthrough heart surgery? I may need it at the close of this season.

    Got it. You're on the run from the Triads. On a train. Probably on the roof. James Bond style. Good luck.
