Since getting the car and driving round Oxfordshire and Wiltshire at ridiculous times of the morning, I've been hearing all kinds of stories about seeing ghostly apparitions on the road. You know the kind of thing, you'll be driving and suddenly see a young woman in the road but as you slow down she disappears, or horsemen patrolling what used to be the stables etc.. It's always a story to do with someone who died at the spot in some grizzly circumstance. The thing is, I'm fine with ghosts appearing at the places where they died, however why is it only human ghosts you see? Think of the number of foxes, rabbits and badgers that are killed on country roads every day and wonder why you never see ghostly figures of them littering the roads. Never have I heard anyone talk of seeing "what looked like a slow pigeon but as I tensed, ready to hit it, it disappeared..." Think about it....but not for too long....
