I had a spooky experience, [a heart jumper really].
I was looking for my great grandparents tombstone, which a cuz2 had told me was in a certain graveyard.

There I was trundling around a country churchyard on a gloomy, humid, thunder rumbling in the distance sort of day.

After about half an hour I saw this large tombstone and approached it.
Sure enough there was the family tombstone of my great grandparents and seven of their children.
So I knelt down to take some details[ thunder rumbles] Here lies the body.... As I got up there was a flash of lightning and a a sudden gust of wind which lifted a sheet of tarpaulin to wrap itself around me. Trouser changing time!

I zipped out of that churchyard DQ, that day.

Sorry for laughing Tom (am actually giggling hysterically while trying to write lol)

That would definitely have been a moment of rethinking my plan of action and would probably get someone else to go in there from now on

Don't blame you for moving very fast but hope you got the info you needed

And they say these things never happen in real life!
Glad it didn't happen to me, that's all I can say.

A few years ago, we had the chance of a small break, leaving the children at home with my parents. This was to be the first time in 25 yrs with no children in tow.
Stuck a pin in the map and ended up at Chipping Camden.
On one beautiful, sunny day, we walked through a village, I think Ratley, then up a hill across the top, to see the view over some quite flat fields etc. Just a flicker of breeze, quiet, loverly.
We sat down to take in the scenary,  , as you do, when the sight of small puffs of smoke in the distance, people running through the shrubs. Both at the same time, came out of a kind of daydream, jumped up, did you see anything? It was as if we had both been there before, as children or similar and we were watching some sort of fighting going on.
That's when I started to trace our ancestors. To see if it was recorded that we had been there, 300/400 yrs previously.
Well, typical. No confirmed records, exactly. But, all the signposts for both our families are in that direction.

Maybe a Civil War battle, Lesanne?
