    I think he writes about ghosts, he doesn't go round with a gun and trap and catch them.

    Are you aware

    of your computer keyboard's 'Caps Lock' key? Makes all the difference...

    Mind you, that's not half as bad as his friend and researcher John Magin Kennedy claiming to have killed a Vampire back in 1989, and where did he kill the Vampire???? 'Preston' (Source JMK Website)

    I've gone off him somewhat, the early books were excellent but the stories now are clutching at straws even more. Same goes for his Merseymart column, the other week it was a giant cat that told two lads to stay out of some woods near Speke.

    Default Cat of Speke

    The talking cat of Speke is an old legend in speke and halewood. I heard it years ago in the seventies. Cats have been known as 'familiars' i.e. attendant demons of witches.
    As for John Magin Kennedy - I asked him once if he believed anyone had left his grave and drank blood, and he said, 'They based a whole religion on one. His name was Jesus.'
    I thought that was a bit out of order though, but, s'pose he has a point .

    Hi MissInformed

    If Tom does join the forum I would like him to explain why his story The Valentine Ghost said to have occurred on the iron bridge in Sefton Park, featuring the lovers named William Robert D'Onston and Alice Harwood, appears to be a direct borrowing of the story of the Ripper suspect Robert D. Stephenson otherwise known as Roslyn D'Onston who related a very similar story that took place not in Sefton Park but in Hull.

    Tom has indeed supported us in the past, he signed up to the forum when it was in its previous 'guise although he's pushed for time and very busy, as I'm sure you all know. Maybe he'll join us again, we've moved on so much since his last visit.
