Over Yonder

Apparition

My Dear Fellow,

You know, I have never seen a ghost. 

This is not an invitation. I have no real desire. Especially because I believe ghosts don't just stroll into the room like a regular chap, introduce themselves and say, "Hello! Lot of weather we're having!"

They sneak up on one, like in the filums. They suddenly appear going "Aaaaaaack!" and make one ess aitch one tee in one's knickers. 

Or they do silly things like move cushions around and throw teacups. I mean, what sort of behaviour is that? Would one really come back from the Underworld just to indulge in interior design and abuse beverages?

It beggars the imagination. 

So today's blip comes from Ocean Terminal again, because I was in there doing some chores. They had these odd little sculpture installation things that look like ghostly floaty people. It is sort of odd. Does anyone really look up when shopping and go, "Oooh, art?" I mean, I know I did but that's only because I was desperate for a blip. It was either this or a picture of a seagull.

However, I thought they were sort of cool. If ghosts exist I hope they are like this, lighter than air and having fun. Knocking on tables and talking to weirdoes is no sort of life in the afterlife. That is my opinion.

p.s. Note extra photo. I was considering make this the main blip of the day but then thought better of it on grounds of not wanting to blatantly advertise a department store.
