i've had a strange thing happen to me today..i was alone at home,totally relaxed and just
sitting here drinking my 
..when all of a sudden i smelt a bonfire
burning.i checked all around the house,and looked outside but no fires anywhere.
the smell was very very strong in my lounge, i chose to ignore it.but a feeling of
pure peace & tranquility came over me.i then felt like i was a child again,and i was
standing in my gran's back garden,and there was my grandad tending his bonfire! will
never forget that wonderful smell of dried wood burning and the old dead grass.the feeling
was gone within minutes,but the smell was with me all afternoon!

and not on a PC.i can't reply to msg 'threads'...so other users may think i'm being anti-social by not replying.well,i'm trying to join in
on here...but NTL DIGITAL don't appear to have the technology to cope with this site!! guess i'll be told differently now by an NTL employee!!

my gran
Posted Mar 21, 2002
as a kid,every summer holiday,which always seemed to go on forever,my
family always went to my gran's house.i loved going there,she and my granpa lived at
Sherborne in Dorset.i loved the journey there as once we had got through the main towns
it was all countryside.i loved all the open fields,the air seemed fresher and cleaner
and there were flowers growing wild in the
hedgerows that i had never seen before.the countryside was so beautiful to me..like another world.
my gran lived in a really beautiful house,it was built in the 1600's.
of course the interior had been altered slightly,but the main structure of the
house was still the same.the house had a basement which was still the same as when the house
was built..it still had the celler where
the coal used to be delivered for the huge fires
that were in every room.
us kids used to sleep in the very top of the house..in the attic.this is where i saw my first ghost.
strangely enough i wasn't frightened.
the night that i saw the ghost i awoke feeling
really cold..and there at the foot of the bed
was a figure cloaked in black.i couldn't see
anything except a black cloak and a hat that had a
feather sticking out of it.anyway as i said,i wasn't
frightened,i just got out of bed,but just as i did so
the ghost disappeared.
at breakfast the next morning i told my gran what i had seen
and she smiled knowingly as if she knew what i meant.
she then explained that in the 1700's
Oliver Cromwell and his men had stayed there
as they were tired after thier journey.
also,there were other ghosts that appearred during
the day...unfortunatly my gran died a few
years ago now also my granpa...so i havn't
visited the house for many years.i wonder though
if the new occupants have seen any of the ghosts??
