Ghostbusters

Ok so we had no confirmed ghost sightings but we also had no shortage of ghostly events. As we left Great Chart, we drove past a graveyard. What would walk across our path but none other than a black cat. We arrived in Pluckley proper and took s stroll through the graveyard at the church, right at dusk. It was very overrun and rather ghostly with some strange sounds but the strangest was the man walking his three dogs who said NOTHING when I said 'hello' and 'hello puppies. It was as if he never even saw us!!


We entered the pub where Cristian tried to buy drink but because he had no cash couldn't. You see, the man behind the bar had only just taken over since the previous owners had just 'up and went'. As he put it, they left the keys on the bar and walked out. I asked if business was slow and he said it had been ok for him. He said he'd lived in the area forever so you'd think he'd know why they'd gone. Scared by the ghosts in the graveyard next door perhaps???


He headed to the Dering Inn but it had closed, despite having people still inside and out. One of the locals started to tell us all about the best businesses in the area, the best one being Newhouse farms, coincidentally (or not) Mark and Cristians grandad used to own that farm! Did I mention the bar that flew in front of the vehicle??
Well not as spooky as anticipated but lots of fun just the same.
