    At a remote Manor chapel, I thought the tapping on the Stained window glass I was working on was my mate on the inside messing about. After the third series of tapping on the actual piece I was fitting I shouted at him to pack it in!!
    He replied.."What are you on about?"... he was standing by the van.. [​IMG] We left!

    Early double Glazed units were pressure filled and had a tendancy to explode when damaged.If identified we replaced them.
    I was working alone, and removing some from a window in an empty property, as I was about to lever out a unit I was tapped on my shoulder..Instantly I spun around to find..no one there but at that moment,with my face turned away from it, the unit exploded! Goggles or no goggles,I would have been in serious trouble,as it was I spent hours in A&E and left with a shaved head! Angel on your shoulder??

    Spooky Nick, nothing wrong with having a Guardian Angel. You were very lucky, there.

    I've definitely had premonitions too unusual to explain away as mere coincidence. Usually they have been of a ridiculous nature and nothing so useful as a set of the winning lottery numbers!

    A few years ago I went to a works Christmas do where the raffle was a car. I had a dream the night before the winning ticket was mine and 396. I got there, found the girl selling them and bought 10 at �£1 each. She gave me ticket numbers 391 to 400 ( :eek: :eek: ) I left them on the table, and they got cleared away with the general rubbish - paper hats and such like. I chased her into the kitchen and got them back saying the winning ticket was in there. Anyway - the winning ticket wasn't 396 - it was 397!!!

    Wow, David, this really hits home to me big time.

    First, Honey ... did you win the car with 397? I got a bit lost there (surprise, you say) you "dreamt" it was 396 and 397 won and you had 391 to 400 ??????

    Well, it won't be a surprise to any of you who know me that I am slightly from somewhere else. [​IMG]

    I have had many encounters in the past ... including seeing my mother walk up to me to touch me and she had been dead for 20 years. I have been in grocery store staring at cheese when I went there for bread and when I went back into the office my girlfriend said she wished she asked me to buy her some cheese. There are too numerous things I've encountered but the best was this ...

    In 1967 my girlfriend and I decided to drive to Panama City, Florida from Huntsville, Alabema ... about 400 miles, in a little Chevrolet Corvair, which we were going to camp out in on the beach there for three days. We did so, had a great time and started the journey home. Halfway up Alabama (because you went straight down through Birmingham to Montgomery and into Florida) I was driving and Linda was sleeping in the back (fold down seats). It was dark and late and there was a detour to the right saying Decatur. Now we had a Decatur near Huntsville but this was the Decatur in Georgia. I took the detour saying to Linda this was odd as it wasn't there on our way down. She said nothing. I drove through complete darkness, no houses, no anything really for miles and miles with the radio blaring and suddenly there were traffic lights in front of me. I shouted to Linda to wake up but she didn't so I leaned back and shook her ... nothing. As I approached the traffic lights they went red so I stopped. The radio suddenly went off the air. I looked around and was in a cowboy-like scenario with wooden buildings (not unusual actually for that part of America) but this was from way-gone-by-days ... wild/wild/west ... I'm a bit countrified so I know what I'm looking at. As I sat at the intersection at the red light, a car came from the crossroads and turn left and went past me ... there was no driver in the car. The light went green and I moved off. The radio came back on, I looked in the rear-view mirror and there was just black behind me and Linda was sitting up chattering away. To cut it short, she swore she was never asleep and never saw anything. Suddenly I was back on the road home.

    I did do a lot of research into after and discovered many, many people have experienced this exact scenario in that very same area. It's apparently a bit of a "Bermuda triangle" between Alabama and Georgia.

    I still believe in the paranormal and always will.

    Now I'll disappear ...

    It`s no wonder you eventually moved to Portugal, LOL. Now, talking of the Bermuda Triangle, anybody got any similar stories?

    Dai. I've got several. (Mickey -taking, apart)
    Bit reluctant to post them on the 'net where every idiot and his brother can read them and trace you via your username.
    If this is just a general thread them I'll keep them to myself. If you're trying to do a study, or something, P.M. me and I'll send you them. [​IMG]
