    In answer to your question; absolutely! Numerous experiences over my lifetime have convinced me beyond doubt. Beautiful walk in the cemetery - perfect weather to set the tone! I also research the ones that get my attention. Surprising what you learn at times. Carry on, Willie!!

    Always something interesting when exploring an old cemetary. I'm much the same with bikes, when first announced I'm often "ugh, don't like" then later soften to where I like it, and sometimes even buy one! Much like listening to a new album for the first time, takes a few plays to let it all sink in. Cheers WIllie!

    Great video Willie. It's funny you mentioning about bikes you don't like to start with, as I had the same thing when I first saw the RE 650 Meteor. I had always favoured the RE 650 Interceptor but now it's the RE 650 Meteor, which is why I wanted to know what you thought of it when you had one. I'm glad to see you are enjoying your time having a walk and a talk during the Christmas holidays.

    I too love cemeteries but the way I'm feeling at the moment I could be in one soon. If that happens you can have my Interceptor, but I will come and haunt you and ride pillion :)
    Personally I don't like the Classic 650 or Super Meteor, it just the big bit of frame that sticks out in front of the petrol tank that puts me off, otherwise they are lovely.
    All the best Willie, have a great new year and ride safe. I hope to get over to your neck of the woods in the New Year. I've not been to Suffolk much at all so it would be new to me.

    I’ve had two strange experiences, once when I was around 14 and myself and a friend saw an opaque hooded figure and then the other time was about 3 years ago when I was working at a customers old farmhouse. I was working away and turned to see a lady standing in the doorway in either a brown dress or brown raincoat , she had a 30s/ 40s style hairdo and as I looked away and then looked back she was gone. I never told my customer about it as they’d just moved in and I didn’t want to spook them. Surprised I’ve not seen more things in the 30 odd years I’ve spent as a tradesman.

    As to the bikes - I’m 76 and have had so many from the smallest to the biggest I’ve lost count
    My latest I lusted after for a long time bought one and only kept it 6 months as it didn’t work out the way I thought it would as it had a bench seat on it and I was used to sitting down in my bike like my last v strom - so I sold the Interceptor and am on the hunt now for Another V Strom
    - so it seems it’s not just you that has these coming and going thoughts on bikes

    Sounds like a spook is trying to use the "Clapper" to turn the lights on. 🙂
    Decades ago one of my brothers dabbled in the occult (he grew up to become a somewhat popular voice actor) and we had a ghost/familiar to bother another of our brothers in his room or so we were told by him. Our mother wound up having a priest come and read the 91st Psalm in every room of the house. No more ghosts. Older grave yards are a bit of a comfort although I have no idea why other than the historical aspect. Colonial era and Civil War Cemeteries are as close as I've been. Old Churches here are maybe 100 to 150 years old.
    As for the Classic 650, it looks to be a beautiful standard motorcycle and the black & gold looks the nicest in photos. I still think more about your choice of the Classic 500 and search the interwebs for a Bullet Trials Edition here on the Left Coast of America.
    I am looking forward to your chat with Sean & Suze. The 3 of you are genuinely fine young people. Miss Suze was pointing out a "Fogbow" in their recent Christmas Chat and unfortunately I got the song "Somewhere over the Rainbow" stuck in my head, albeit with "fogbow" substituted. Made a fool of myself but that's normal.
    In the early '80s I used to want a new bike every week or so. That too can be normal but also nerve-wracking. The most I've had at one time was two motorbikes. A GL1800 and a DR650 and later I sold the DR650 and bought a Sportster 1200 Low. Two is plenty for me and at the moment I have just the HD Ultra Classic, which serves as inspiration to go to Physical Therapy in hopes of being able to once again be strong enough to take a tour of America with one of my brothers. A Bullet Trials 500 would be a bit of mental therapy, LOL! And a beautiful motorbike it is.
    I have rambled enough.
    Be well my British Brother!
    SS in America!

    Regarding the ghost, I'm sorry to say that you've been asking for it by hanging around graveyards too much. You've caught a case of the clap mate. I was always a serious sceptic when it came to matters of a supernatural nature, that was until I ended up running a pub that was built in the 1300's. Changed my opinion a bit that did. As for the classic 650; I think it's a lovely looking bike, but for me, a bike of that style should be a thumper. There's just something special about a big thumper. Also, the styling is lovely overall but that rear mudguard is just too big and to the extent that it would be a deal breaker. It just don't look right for my money. All the best mate.

    The weird colourways Royal Enfield choose for some of their bikes suggests they have a different idea of the machine to their target audience. This has been true of the Hunter, Shotgun and Guerrilla, and the Classic 650 has some liveries I can't imagine any fully-sighted person choosing. I wouldn't trouble about ghosts, they'll move on if you ignore them. If you try to contact one it'll probably be some low level entity trying to imitate a former resident, and cause you a load of grief.

    I love old graveyards, it's such a shame most are in the condition they are with no-one to look after the graves. I'd be tempted on a quiet evening to go and cut the weeds etc and tidy up that family grave.
    Regarding ghosts, animals have a very powerful sense and often see or feel things we can't. My sister had a few strange things happen in her house when she was looking after her daughter's dog. It was as if the dog could see someone. Happened a few times. Sometimes it would sit staring at the corner of the room. Another occasion it suddenly ran upstairs and they found it behind a couch in a spare room my brother in law used as an office. It was a new house they had built but it was built on an old farm and on the site of the cowshed and outbuildings. 😮
