Some of us from the MH forums have been following this from very early on. Without jumping in to make pointless inane posts or without posting questions to let it run its course. Michael is right, when you have an interest in such things, you _will_ come into contact with hoaxers and others that ridicule the paranormal. Taking things for face value is not an option sometimes.
I would love for this to be real, however I will not let this desire stand in the way of subjective reasoning or logic.
Real or not, it is an interesting read and I wish 'Michael' all the best, I just hope I get the chance to see the conclusion to his tale. icon_sad.gif

Hiya All

Its Pat again, I'd love this to be real too, but I have my suspictions.

Given a lot of people a lot of fun thought!, and all around the world people are talking about Michael!

How are people finding out about this? Just finding the site by accident or being told by friends?

I'd love to know if the story is spreading and how.


Kindest Regards

Its quite strange, but i did have a message on my pc desktop this am, well in fact it was very early today. Not sure what it was as i have never seen it before. But it made no sence, and after being on the web, guess what looking at this, it had gone. Now as i am typing this message i feel very cold and there is a strong breeze around my legs. its making me shiver if i am to be honest. There are no doors open etc and my pc is in the corner of a room. Enough.
Thank you Mr MP. you have kept me from paying my tax bill now for 4 days, lol. Not to matter as i have had the benifit of the interest and not them. I have also been smoking to much, it what i do when i read.
I as well as many others im sure are interested how we will no the end of your fantastic story. Sorry if i have missed this. but how will we get to know the rest ?.
Thank you and please thank Janet from us, as if it wasnt for her this particular read would not have been known.

[b]this is just great icon_sad.gif
ive been reading on this post since day one, ever since pat asked the first question on ghosts,and now i feel so disapointed that we will probably never get to read the remaining memoirs of micheal ,
like a lot of ppl i have stayed in the background and not posted because i was more interested reading the memoirs micheal was writing than continually questioning micheal,
please dont take offence at this but the questions should have really come later after micheal finished his memoirs,
and as for the reporter who seems to have instigated micheals departure he should be ashamed of himself for not respecting micheals wishes in the first place ,if he had cared to read micheals post from the begining he would have known that micheal was serious about leaving ,and now he's spoilt it for the rest of us as well as him self
so to u press_office all i can say to u is thanks a bunch (not)

Morning to all the usual suspects.

Well I am bitterly dispointed.

I would just like to say to everyone who has posted idiotic rubbish and also to the Press THANKS A BUNCH!!!!!!!!!!

Now I dont know if we will ever get to hear the end of the compelling story.

To Michael I would just like to say thank you for having given us a valuable insite into your thoughts and feelings.

Hiya

I was gutted too. I want Michael to keep on writing to us. I don't really see why the press would like to take it up. This morning someone from California had done a posting! I just wondered how they got to hear about all this.

Regards Pat

Hi Pat,

I think its all the links to other websites that have caused people to come on which in a way is good, but unfortunatly people talk and it gets out quicker which is not good for Michael, but its the press that i want to twat in the face. They cant leave anything alone. icon_evil.gif

With regards to people worldwide following this story - I think that people have shown remarkable restraint in order to encourage Michael to continue to post. This thread has received in excess of 12,000 views in a few days but only a few people have posted publicly. This is only my second public post despite following things from the start. I kept quiet because I didn't want add to the possible chaos and I'm sure many others worldwide were also acting courteously for the same reason.

So, while it's an awful shame that the media may have gotten hold of this and frightened Michael away, I think kudos are due the users of this forum for their overall restraint.

And THANK YOU MICHAEL for a very enlightening and enjoyable week!

Hi,
I just want to say that i too have followed this amazing story from the begining and pretty much kept quiet.
Michael Hi, I hope that you do come back but at the same time i wouldn't blame you if you didn't, as i'm sure most people here would understand.

It certainly has been a great experience for me and i thank you for that Michael.

Take care i do hope to hear from you soon, as do many others

GxXx

Hiya all

I think they've alreaady have got enough of their own. What a wonderful job to have. I love Derek Acorah, he is a smashing chap, also Colin Fry.

By the way - Young Frankie doesn't think much of me - does he?

I am not doing any of the alleged ghost posting or am I writing a story. To be honest I'd love to write a play as I am greatly into theatre. But, would not use this method of publicity.

Give me a break lad.



[quote="Claire 30"]I have just noticed [size=9][size=18]Ghost [/size][/size]has also posted on to Most Haunted's website so they now have their own Ghost !!!! icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif[/quote]

Hello everyone

I had a look at this website, it is amazing. Do you think it has been put on especially for us, and how long has it been there?

Do you think someone should contact Geraldine? It seemed genuine enough. Anyone from Oldbury who knows this building as an office that Michael is referring to?

I feel like looking further into this, did he really exsist?


[quote="shiftytoes"]I hope you are not using some dead guys name. I started to do a look up on the internet. Not that I was believing this but the story was good and I was bored. At first I found nothing and in the end I didnt find much but I would like to know what the explanation is for this:

Ive been following this from the start and have kept an open mind. Many people have commented that they hope Michael will come back but I dont think he is going to leave us in the lurch. He seems to be genuine on that count.

I am wondering how it is going to be possible for him to let us have a copy of his book like he promised though. I mean thats freaky isnt it. All he has is the names of us and if he did want to send us a book he would have to use the private messaging and contact all of us or is there some other way he will do it.

I think I will freak out if I wake up one morning and get a book in the post from Michael Pennington. This would make me firmly believe in ghosts I mean spirits sorry Michael. I mean there would be no getting away from that would there. Interesting thought but scares the hell out of me.

What if this is all an elaborate hoax by the press though. What if the Birmingham Post or the Evening Mail are short on a story or two and are building this up to launch a good editorial. Just thought I would get that one in there and stuff up the press officers plans if that is what he is intending to do. I notice the little sh*t has gone very quiet.

Have a nice day everyone

I think it's definitely been put there for the sake of the story, I don't think that would be the first thing you'd put on your web page would it...


It's a good story though!

(and I still want to hear the end, please don't leave me out!)

Frankie Dear

It is not me, if I was clever enough to write that, do you thnk that I would be working in a small office, as a gereral runaround and gofor this, gofor that. Not bloody likely mate.
My original posting was a genuine request for ghost stories. Look what I got.

Anyway, you must be interested - Why do you keep coming back then!

If you are so suspisious why don't just leave and go and annoy someone else on another website or message board.

I'm not going to get annoyed, I am a very patient person.

Peace to you.

The anticipation is killing me, I NEED to know how this story ends,. I've been touched by this story and wheter it be true or a hoax it's made me realise that life indeed is short and I find myself hugging my daughter just a bit extra. I owe this to Michael. and yes some people may call me sad but this story is fantastically addictive icon_smile.gif

Love to all
