What an exciting experience. we didn't see any ghost but we loved the tour. I also loved all the Close's in the area. You could feel the history in this city. No wonder JK Rowling was so inspired there. <br /><br />Did you see Fettes college as well. We walked for miles to find it after I saw it from a bus window. I told my daughter we were trekking across the city to find that place. We found Wanna Burger too. Great trip. Thanks for taking me back there with you story!<br /><br />DeanneAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08808121507404241234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3839632013669425872.post-41171315230807482122010-10-24T13:07:09.466-07:002010-10-24T13:07:09.466-07:00Great story, enjoyed reading it, thanks for sharin...Great story, enjoyed reading it, thanks for sharing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3839632013669425872.post-55164120722220703202010-10-23T07:53:38.261-07:002010-10-23T07:53:38.261-07:00I totally believe that the line between the living...I totally believe that the line between the living and the dead can be blurred.

Why should we believe we are the only ones? :) There have been lots of stories of people who saw 'ghosts' or 'angels' - depending on what they looked like and I think it must be fascinating to actually see a ghost. I never saw one myself but I was in situations where I thought I was not alone... pretty scary, huh?Gordanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12062168382170894509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3839632013669425872.post-90187992650859780762010-10-22T15:03:28.842-07:002010-10-22T15:03:28.842-07:00Lillypond, send a link to me about your story when...Lillypond, send a link to me about your story when published.Would love to read it.<br />Hi Renee and Norbert.We were dining with friends last night, and this tale got told because they were asking about our recent travels.And Kay cannot understand why I kept quiet and never let on to the guide and the other tourists that I was a 'cobbler'.<br />And in fact, I wonder myself why ....<br />But I think it's because I have a terrific respect for the old time craftsmen shoemakers who made beutiful sturdy and long lasting shoes , stitching each piece together by hand by candlelight.No sewing machine.Soles handsewn and welted.<br />So I can only explain it by saying that it was 'our' moment together...two craftsmen, each with the greatest respect for each other...I didn't see the need to make anything more out of it.<br />When the guide turned and made that annoucement, he did it such a manner as to try and scare me, and I could see a fleeting expression cross his face , of ''well, that failed to scare that old guy!" when I showed no reaction.<br />Anyone got any other scary stories?Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07618511960243841803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3839632013669425872.post-6962763277567736802010-10-22T07:44:17.686-07:002010-10-22T07:44:17.686-07:00I'm just like you Jim, I don't believe in ...I'm just like you Jim, I don't believe in ghosts but i don't disbelieve them either.
