This is Passenham churchyard...Passenham, a small village in Buckinghamshire, is famous for its ghosts. One is an evil landlord, who is dragged through the lanes by his ghost horse, with his foot caught in the stirrup. Then there's the corpse who shrieked 'I am not ready!' as her coffin was going down. They opened the coffin to check, but she was ready all right.
I used to live just across the river from Passenham but, though I walked there lots of times through the water meadows, I never saw a thing.

I'm liking the Bay Of Biscay track, it's just the thing to sooth my sore head this AM.
I was really looking forward to listening to this, but boxstr keeps cutting me off! And refuses to play RT and the Gourds flat out...grr... Is anyone else having trouble here, or is it only me?
it's all still playing fine here dm..
sometimes just right clicking them and saving will get passed boxtr being temperamental .. then delete if you don't like them.. or go and buy if you do!
Thanks, shane, I'll try that out once the kids are in bed (assuming I can stay awake that long!)
