I had a manager at work, who is the straightest guy imaginable, he would never bullship. He used to live in a house in St Helliers drive, Sandfields, P Talbot, during the 70s The things he said happened in that house chilled me to the bone. It was as bad as any horror movie i have seen.
I'm pretty open minded about these sort of thing.
On another occasion at Flatholms I recall being in my bedroom when an overpowering smell of perfume came out of nowhere and was gone pretty much straight away.
I have an absolute corker of an incident that happened to me that ended up in a book about Lighthouses.
It's pretty longwinded so i will sit down and compose it later lol
You might think I've forgotten, but one day, when you least expect it, my time will come.

Did it involve a light spinning round and round?

Sounds plausible... Did you ever visit him in Broadmoor?

I actually worked on Most Haunted a few times as a cameraman, there was one occasion I was doing some lighting tests in an old mansion when out of nowhere I could smell a strong smell of stale tobacco and gin. I looked around and saw this pale, haggard figure looming towards me. Luckily it was just Yvette Fielding but it had me scared for a minute.
The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

As i said, he's as straight as can be. I also remember at that time hearing stories about a house down there.I know it proves nothing, but unless you experience things yourself you won't know.

Funny how skeptics never experience these phenomena.
A few years back the tower of Flatholms lighthouse was being sandblasted.
Two lads in thier 40's from Yarmouth had the contract.
The work was due to last a fortnight and both lads were to stay on the lighthouse.
We had to fly the grit and blasting equipment out for them, it took 3 days to get all the gear out to them.
My job was to work with the helicopter on Flatholms.
At the end of the days work I'd fly off and return the following morning.
On the first day of work the helicopter had shut down for a break, the three of us took the opportunity for a tea break. Half hour later the call came over the radio the helicopter was on its way back to us. Myself and one of the guys went back outside to work leaving the other guy to wash the cups.
After a short while the guy came outside and asked if either of us had moved his watch that he'd taken off and left by the sink whilst washing the cups.
Both of us obviously said no.
I said are you sure you had it on? Definitely came the reply. I then teased him about the "white lady" and told them a few stories.
Anyway I flew off at the end of the day leaving the guys out there.
Next day I asked if the watch had turned up, no came the reply.
The guy was at a loss, he said the watch was a present from his wife and he only took it off to go in the shower or wash dishes.
On the 3rd day I flew back on.
The guy came running towards me pointing at his watch "look I've found it" and said he wasn't spending another night on the lighthouse. "I was laying in bed this morning and right by the side of me I heard the hour chime of my watch go off, I opened the draw by the side of the bed, and there it was...
Told you it was a long story ðŸ˜

My guess is he’d put it in the drawer and forgot where he’d left it. Call it a hunch.
