the ghost of Carry Nation on holiday in the UK?

Methinks condensation and an uneven tabletop may also have something to do with it. ;)

Who ya gonna call?

The Gloucester Active Paranormal Society

That's nothing. We've had whole hamburgers disappear from the kitchen table when we weren't looking and we didn't see or hear a thing.
Neither did the dogs.

"Lyn claims other strange happenings have happened recently."

This reporter needs a ghostwriter.

That's right. Bottoms up!

This is exactly why I quit drinking.

What Punkin said.

It's a 600 year old pub - uneven floors, uneven tables, etc.

This crap is how morons end up buying the "Amityville Horror" house.

'Best Boooooooooooz in Town'

This happens every time my overweight upstairs neighbor walks across the room.

Lol at Betsy minding the gaps.

It's comforting to know that cheeze-ball local news reporters are not limited to the States.

I think a full glass is probably too heavy to fall because of a slightly uneven countertop. Furthermore, if it was that, shouldn't it have happened more than once? Say what you like, but I believe in ghosts. Whether this particular incident is a ghost I don't know, but it certainly could be.

That ghost was definitely drunk. Can't even hold the glass from falling. Sheesh.

In England, a place called the "New Inn" is 600 years old.

So what? Every pub sells spirited beverages.

I don't believe in ghosts and also think this was due to an uneven floor combined with an uneven table. Sorry wingpup.

Did anyone else notice the unusual term used to describe the woman named Sam--the "manageress" of the pub? I don't ever remember hearing that one over here even back when jobs still had gender-specific titles.

What's wrong with "barmaid"? Publicanienne? Publicanette?

wingnutpup, I also believe in ghosts, but I believe in physics even more. It does a disservice to actual spirits not to try and debunk the fakes.

Since the pint ended up on the floor, I am inclined to suspect that the culprit is Neil the St. Bernard from Topper.

Snork @ Horace!

But perhaps we misunderstand...the lady ghost was
a tea-tottler--she didn't drink.

So she wanted a lemonade, or something non-alkie, not a pint. I'd make her clean it up!


*warms up geezer bus for Horace*

So it landed on the floor ... mebbe John R. Powers said it best ...

"Gravity makes all the important decisions."
