I've not come across this thread before and I'm astounded it started in 2016! I'd never heard of Taylor Swift before until recently and some news of her stepping out with a famous football player which seems to be angering some of Trumps supporters. I doubt I'm in her target demographic, but...

Bloke who shivved him in prison should have got time off his sentence, not an increase.

It's a bridge in Goole East riding of Yorkshire on the rather unimaginatively name Bridge street. West Dock bridge.

I don't recall any deliberate suicides, but I can remember bodies being pulled from the water on a few occasions. Mostly people who've had some refreshments and decided to relieve themselves too close to the water. It's a dockland area and seamen as well as locals can fall victim. A little...

A few months ago, my daughter saw a figure of a man standing on the walkway of one of three bridges she passes over on her way to work. She was on the opposite side of the road and assumed the man would appear on the path at the other side of the bridge, just as she crossed on her side. The...

Was it mentioned on Fortean TV, the Lionel Fanthorpe hosted show?

Y You Could be right, but the numbers all clicked into place and a reset has done the job.

Here's an odd thing happened yesterday. At the school I work in, there is a long corridor with an exit at either end. There are metal gates outside which I open every morning and lock every evening. These gates are secured with good quality five digit combination locks, both coded with the same...

And John Mahoney actually IS from Manchester!

'Ere, 'Ang on... I'm RH neg, and I ain't no alien ...

Apologies. I'll re-word it then. Iwas surprised to see, on GB news, Mr Farage apparently coming to the defense of RB ( though I didn't watch the article), when one considers RB's past comments regarding him.

The article on the front page, is simply the argument put forward by every school leaver, whose lack of enthusiasm at realising they now have to earn a living, makes them think they're the only ones who've railed against the system.

If I recall, in Aliens, another race is mentioned; Arcturians I think.

Coals probably under a lot of pressure, but will come back a diamond.

27? I'm 60!

I've never been on a plane . Odd really at my age. Most people take such things for granted . Never passed my driving test either. Must grow up one day.

My name's Bill.......Yeah, but am I bovvered though.

Nicely done. I make no claims. Like I said, I'd forgot I even had the video. Balloon's was my assumption.

I considered this too.

Well. They were flying. They were objects. I couldn't identify them. So......

I've just being looking at the photos in my Google account from over the years, (boring Sunday). I found a video I'd forgotten about. It was taken in 2016 and shows two objects flying (floating?) Over some houses. I remember they caught my attention, but all I had was my ' phone so video...

GOZO….? I thought GOZO was some sort of Ouija board demon.. That's Zozo.

Two friend of my brother's, P and S. P told my brother that S was going into hospital for a circumcision (medical reasons). Later that day I was with my brother when S pulled up in his van. My brother commented on S' forthcoming operation. S said how did you know? My brother said "Just a...

You may be right @Floyd1. I can't say I've ever seen it on such a hot day though. Thought he was going to spontaneously combust!

Not always the girls nowadays.

This was a bit weird. On Saturday afternoon, my wife and I decided to take our small dog (Oscar) out for a walk. We went onto the nearby riverbank thinking there may be a pleasant breeze from the river but there wasn't and the day was hotter then we realised so we kept the walk short. Oscar...

One of my favourite Sherlock Holmes stories. Only a thumb and one finger? Suppose they'd do in a pinch......

Should have tried it with a full grown herring gull, he'd be the one traumatised. (Insert jokes about a pecker here)

Maybe it has come up and hasn't been spotted?

Jeez. Just read the wiki article. Don't need to see pictures, description is bad enough. Poor sods.

I got the set from unexplained magazine. Me and my brother were mucking around with them, me concentrating on a card my brother trying to read my thoughts. It was hit and miss until, concentrating on a card, I 'saw' it as a shape in the air. A black square. Instantly my brother said "Black...

At least you weren't grabbed by the ghoulies...

The beach at Cleethorpes is very shallow, you can wade out a long way (it's on the mouth of the Humber). Any object covered by water will only be just under the surface, so having waves break over would give white water and spume, a bit like the ghost picture.

Gull was my thinking too.

If it had been the opposite, ie; a body with no legs going along the road, could we assume it was someone arsing about?

For what it's worth, there's a WAC book from the eighties available on Amazon. Ghosts, Monsters and Legends (Wideawake Club) https://amzn.eu/d/gzBYnHx

Doesn't sound too unusual for Bridlington...

They do indeed! Every time I have to do any work in the loos,the taps go crazy if I've got me coat on.

I'm 60 and I've got one tattoo. Just wanted to join in.

As I mentioned before, I work in a school (caretaker). One of my duties is opening up the school in the morning at 6am. When I first started many years ago, the school field was half its current size and was bisected by a metal fence. The other side, though owned by the school, was in public...

I disagree. I remember it as a lovely pint . Visited the brewery in Tadcaster years ago, brilliant night!

Definitely. Brett captured Holmes in a way I always imagined him. Quirky, arrogant, that knowing smirk and dismissive manner were perfectly brought to life.

If I recall, it was even used in the video game Red Dead Redemption.

For some reason, this story reminds me of the Mothman stories. Otherworldly beings present during disasters.

The child in the top left window is clearer than the figure pointed out.

I logged in to this site this morning, to be met with a strangely prescient notification... .

I'm a bit confused. Moors murders took place between '63, '65. If you were in your twenties you'd be way past retirement age.

My sister in law used to have the crying boy picture, they had a house fire too!

You might consider the F word in its many variants similar, in the uk at least where it is used as a noun, an adjective and a verb as required. F***ing F****ers F***Ng F***ed, For example.
