Unfortunately was a a family funeral yesterday. Afterwards went to the pub, where when talking to a cousin, with my back to the table (I was stood a few foot away, and nobody else sat at the table) my pint "jumped off" the table!!!!!!

Took my empty glass to the bar, apologised to the landlord, asked for a mop to clean up, told him the story, at which point he gave me a free pint, got one of the bar staff to clean up the beer, then explained the pub was haunted and this happened often!!!!!1 For the conspiracy lot et al, the beer was sat on table 13!!!!!

I did check the table and it was flat/straight, aswell as the floor (obviously didn't have a spirit level with me). I have no logical/scientific explanation. Weird coincidence or haunty ghosts???? YOU DECIDE???????

Did it have beer in or a spirit?

Its all horsehite, innit, coming back from the dead in another form and the best you can do is knock a pint over, big deal

And why doesn't anyone ever see ghosts of caveman, there doesn't appear to be anything dressed in clobber before the 1500's

Some people just struggle to hold their drink. There's no shame in it Bishop, some folk can drink others can eat takeaways daily.

It was my first pint, just got there from the Crem, and I'd only had a sip or 2!

Wasn't a pint of this was it?

Mr Horden would you buy a pint of Beer in Stockport that only came 3rd in the Stockport Beer and Cider Festival????

Didn't you notice the juggernauts from the quarry driving past, the locals call the pub the Seismic Arms.

Was it a 'Portergeist'?

Only 3rd ? obviously a ghost of its former self. Still think I would give it a try like.

It's always vague isn't it. A ghost never turns up on Sky News to do an indepth interview on the afterlife with Adam Boulton. Same with the God stuff. They always have to talk in riddles. The Virgin Mary used to have a thing about turning up in visitations to children. Of all the places and people to choose from she picked a retarded young girl in Lourdes and appeared in the town dump inviting people to drink contaminated water. Then she moved on to another three retards in a backwater of Portugal.

Like I say, its never an appearance on Hard Talk.

As the old girl always said, Don't worry about the dead,they won't bother you, it's the living you want to look out for.
The after life was something invented to keep the poor in check years ago, a nice prospect after a life of poverty and working yourself to death, going to heaven if you behave yourself and keep your head down.
So it's nice to keep the 'proof' of it alive.
