Paranormal Events

[Blue Hills]

[QUOTE 5421228, member: 9609"]getting back to the OP - which incidently has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with car keys - how did that happen? in a moment of shock how did I recall with such clarity what had happened a fortnight previously, I had put the key on top of the pile of t-shirts and when I opened the drawer it fell down the back. And then after a fortnight of relentlessly searching for the dam thing the memory came back to me in a moment of extreme trauma.


£175 for a new car key - LOL - I can nae get over that,[/QUOTE]
It's most likely not pananormal at all. The power of the human mind. It's remarkable what the mind stores away, even though it might not register that it's been stored and there might seem to be no particular reason at the time for the thing being stored.

It's the reason folk very often get screwed up by something in their past that they never knew they had registered or had forgotten or repressed. And also the reason many folk can eventually free themselves (or in your case find your car keys) by managing to dredge up the buried thing that they had buried/repressed. It's also the reason why it is not clever for folk to play mind games with the young or those they imagine to be vulnerable for whatever reason. For although the victim may not have the strength or insight to see what is going on at the time, the mind can dredge the events/process/game later and post process things.

I need to learn to listen to that little voice at the back of my head that quite often whispers to me that wherever is a really bad "clever" place to put something for I am likely to forget it.

Mind you if do have paranormal talents perhaps you can tell me where I have put/lost my not much used smartphone. Or tell me whether I did indeed hide a stash of euros in the house once when going away. For I have an uncomfortable idea that I returned to find a cryptic clue as to where I had out them that made no sense to me.

Very strange how I can often not remember peoples names, especially when in the middle of a conversation, yet some time later the name will suddenly pop into my head, I then quite often can't remember why I thought of them

That's exactly what I was going to post - now that is seriously paranormal.

I did read somewhere that research by neurologists indicated that there was a fair chance that everything that is ever sensed by a person is stored indefinitely in the brain (well, at least until it dies).

Dealer can make plenty from a broken key that only needs a new blade, as mine did. Skoda dealership would only offer me a full new key at £141, when all I needed was a new blade that I could get from a local key man for £12.50. That's the kind of behaviour that alienates customers.

I would pay the latter of course, but the dealers are ruled by the manufacturers. It is also possible that your local key man made more profit on that key than the dealer would have on his, so should we be shouting at him instead.

You may think that something comes naturally, when you were doing it for years.

Erm I rang Mercedes today to ask what information they needed so we could order a key for the SLK, if you think £175 is bad I'm not going to say how much Mercedes want.

I've got a Mercedes as a company car. I don't drive it hard at all, it has done 12,000 miles and the rear tyres have had it, the front ones are about finished too. It has run flat Pirelli tyres, 275/19 on back 235/19 front. The rear ones are £250 each. It has to have these fitted as its a lease car. I wouldn't mind if they lasted, but they are soft obviously as sh*t, I don't drive it hard, it is not that type of car. Another guy at work has an A Class, it has smaller alloys than mine, he went over a pothole and totally wrecked a wheel. No spare, obviously, so phoned the Mercedes SOS line, it was over £900 for one alloy wheel from them, at a guess 17" AMG. Obviously if it was your own you'd maybe phone the AA and checkout ebay..

Nice cars, but stupid prices. I couldn't afford one for a personal car. I've always had Japanese cars, and the parts for them, mainly Honda, were bad, but Mercedes, its on a much higher level of extortion..

Not so much paranormal but definitely a coincidence.
On Thursday I was at Ruabon station and noticed that part of the footbridge had been blocked off, it led to an overgrown third platform. I began to wonder what had been there, etc.
On Friday there was a programme on TV about the abandoned Ruabon to Barmouth railway. Apparently there had been another line to Llangollen and a marshaling yard.
