Hiya
I'm not scared of being on my own. It was just that after I offered for people to come with me, I thought it sounded a little tarty. I don't want anyone getting the wrong idea about me.

What do admin mean - something with me being a stripper. I know there was a song called 'Patricia the Stripper', but she certainly wasn't me.

Love Pat



[quote="dippysea"]Thats the problem Pat ... seperate Rooms. I would be terrified in a room on my own lol

Now if you found a hotel with a dormitory, that could sleep say a couple of thousand people, I might feel comfortable icon_smile.gif[/quote]

So Pat, why are you not afraid of ghosts.

What do you think of reportings of ghosts hurting people. Does that not concern you?

In May 2003 Julia visited the Station Hotel in Dudley, West Midlands. The hotel dates from 1898 and stories about the murder of a servant girl have intrigued many people. Apparently the hotel manager at the time enticed the poor girl into the cellar and made advances towards her which she refused...he then killed her!

The alleged spirits that reside at the hotel have been investigated by the cult TV programme 'Most Haunted'. During the investigation, medium Derek Acorah was able to confirm that the building is 'active' to this day.

Julia captured several orbs during her visit, which included a tour of the (very spooky) cellars!

I have talked to someone, who has done lots of research for programs like MH and he said:

"I am not convinced the Station Hotel is in any sense haunted. The murder does not seem to have happened, and the building did not stand at the time it was supposed to have happenned. The Station Hotel dates back to off the top of my head 1936, and the earlier building on the site 1910ish. Noone has yet managed to give me any history of the sitre before the beginning of the twentieth century. Previous landlords have gone on record as saying the Hotel was not haunted during their tenancy. However I frequently see threads stating the Station Hotel is haunted, and outlining experiences there on this forum. I believe people do experience odd things there."

Which sort of muddies the water some what.

The railway station opened in 1850, the main hotel at the time was called “The Castle”. In 1896 a meeting was called to discuss the building of a new hotel, which was to be known as “The Station Hotel”, the license was granted and Wolverhampton & Dudley brewery proposed the building be situated on the corner of Birmingham Road and Trindle Road.
The hotel partially opened on the 28th May 1898, the building was black and white with a courtyard and stables. The main entrance for horses and carriages is now the entrance that is situated on the corner of Trindle & Castle Hill. At the time, it had a fountain situated where the traffic lights are now. Carriages and later cars could drop people off right out-side, infront of the main doors.

Myst, Riven, OuterWorlds are role playing games...
the other three relate to points/places in the games?

Myst and Riven (not that I've played them) seem to be about puzzle solving and code breaking...which - if this thing isn't just one huge wind up with no real answers - I presume bears relation to all the strange "binary" code we've witnessed and other strange date and number dropping...


I dunno

Hi Basatak,Know your out there.I think you'll find D.M. did try to post saying you had restored his faith in human kind.However for some reason this has also been supressed by admin.Incitement to racial hatred?I think not.
Perhaps Tony and George have something to do with it.(Ooops,there goes my membership!) icon_lol.gif

Sorry still not changed my avatar.Hey,theres probably no point now though
