So, when you're sitting alone in the living room - gaily tapping away at the lappie, without a care in the world - and you hear a noise which makes you look over towards the corner of the room...





I'm not kidding, I nearly bloody shit meself.

So, what is it? A couple of coats and a bag chucked onto a chair which stands directly next to a table lamp, that's all. But bloody hell...

Thought I was going to have to call Father Jacob in for a moment there, folks. Hmmmm, wait a minute, maybe I should...

LOL - I thought "WTF is that?!" until I read the rest of your post. I'd have shit myself, that's a fact *g*

I'd still call Father Jacob if I were you.

What made it worse was that the more I looked at it the more it seemed to grow!

I think I've just knocked five years off me life...

LOL - so long as it wasn't growling in a demonic manner *g*

What you need now is brandy. Or rum. Or whatever your preferred tipple is. Stricly medicinal, you understand - Nurse [livejournal.com profile] probodie said so!

Oh well, if Nurse [livejournal.com profile] probodie says so, who am I to argue with an expert...

Absolutely - and we know she practices what she preaches, so she must be right :D

I think a call to Father Jacob is definitely in order! ::g::

I think it would be best if he stayed the night, don't you? Just to be sure...

Bloody 'ell, Baldrick! And heee! That is a good spooky shadow incarnation... You sure it wasn't just disguising itself as a couple of coats and a bag chucked onto a chair, which..? *g*

The pic looks positively creepy & spooky indeed. Even with your explanation I wonder what looks like that part of the shadow that looks like the head of IT?
It's an interesting picture the interior and the light like a painting - would make a good book cover for a mystery novel...

From: [identity profile] londonronnie.livejournal.com
Well, the 'head' is the bag that's thrown on top of the coats...

Mind you, it did take me five minutes to pluck up the courage to go and find that out...

Reminds me of the ghost story that has a butterfly sitting on the headlamp of a car, that moves and produces a shadow when the cas drives (at night). It's the sort of effect and it is working even better when there's a sound too...

Good grief, I would have been shaking in my boots, for sure, lol! Definitely think you'd better call in Father Jacob, though - just in case, y'know!
And if he's coming, one or two of us had better come and keep you company, yes? Being such caring friends and all...

Oh, that's ok. I'm sure I could manage him on my own...

No, no, I'm sure we'd all insist on being there for you! We're an unselfish lot, y'know. And I'm sure we'd all love to be - err... exer, no exorcised by Father Jscob! ;-)

Isn't it just! With an accompanying "parrrp" from the trouser department...

Dark Angel came to my mind when I saw your photo ... down a bottle of Scotch and call for Father Jacob ... he will be comforting.

From: [identity profile] londonronnie.livejournal.com
I'll keep the Scotch for when Fr Jacob comes. He might appreciate a tipple himself!

Oh, I definitely think you should call Father Jacob. Just think, he'd reassure you with that marvelous voice of his.... Hmmm. ::Eyes coats and a bag and chair and lamp....::

LOL! That would have scared the crap out of me, too. Especially since I'm a big chicken, not a brave bone in my body :D

As long as it's not shooting fire out of it's eyes or making spooky groaning sounds, you should be just fine *grins* But I'd keep Father Jacob's number on speed dial just in case *hehe*

From: [identity profile] londonronnie.livejournal.com
If it had been shooting fire or groaning I wouldn't be writing this, I'd have been long gone! *g*

Eeep! That's scary at first glance. I'm glad you didn't really need Father Jacob, but it never hurts to call him into check. *g*

Date: 2009-08-14 06:48 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] londonronnie.livejournal.com
Yeah, maybe I should get him to come over and give me the place a bit of a going over, eh?

From: [identity profile] schnuffi.livejournal.com
Impressive arrangement *G* Question is: where did the noise come from? So it's probably a good idea to call FJ anyway just to be on safe side *nods*

Date: 2009-08-14 06:49 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] londonronnie.livejournal.com
Well, I'm assuming that the noise came from the street...

Eeep!!

Date: 2009-08-14 06:55 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] schnuffi.livejournal.com
Assuming is not good enough. Investigations need to be made so you better use the speed dial before something stranger than jackets and a bag invade your house *nods gravely*

Very creepy indeed O_O
Better you call father jacob for assistance anyway... who knows, it might be something 'pretending' to be a couple of coats and a bag .....

Date: 2009-08-14 06:50 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] londonronnie.livejournal.com
Well, we'll soon know - the coats and bag are now gone, so we'll see what appears when the lights go on...

*shivers*

I would have felt the same as you! Hope it didn't take long for your heart to stop thumping.

My daughter just saw your photo and she reckons you have a Guardian Angel there. Much better explanation than a ghosty-ghouly. *g*

Ooh, yes - a Guardian Angel sounds rather nice, doesn't it!

The made me shiver until I read your comment as to what it was - actually, it's still making me shiver.

Oh blimey, yes!Blink! That's exactly what it was like!

Had to have a glass of cider to calm me nerves afterwards...

You dont say!! How many did it take before your nerves completely calmed? Two, two litre bottles??? *g*
