What is Piffle and Bosh?


Stay with me on this one - you will find out the significance of the number 61 soon!!!
It's a proud moment and I really want to share it!!!

Would you believe that I had never head of the words 'piffle' and 'bosh' until the day I woke up with them in my head?

That was the first day of my first paranormal blog post.

PIFFLE - means 'nonsense', 'rubbish'. It's a noun that tends to make something less important, small, inconsequential.

BOSH - means 'rubbish' 'silliness'. It comes from a Turkish word meaning empty.😊😊

So, it's quite interesting, and spooky, that I was led to to take on these two unknown words that, in effect, mean the same thing, when I did not know them in the first place.

But, what I was trying to do was to create something that mirrored my writing style, random bites, stories that attracted me to them, slices of history, interesting facts and my own adventures and put them together to make some quick, spicy, spooky and interesting reading without being overloaded with facts and statements and all about my most beloved topic - THE PARANORMAL.

After all, the best stories, are always filled with just a little bit of  PIFFLE, aren't they.

Well, it seems, that there are some people who DO LIKE my stories, as I have been honoured with a place in the TOP 100 Paranormal blogs in the world.

Holy SHEET!!!!!

Lemon Tree Passage Ghost - Local legend is alive and well

Lemon Tree Passage  is a suburb of the Port Stephens local government area in the Hunter Region of New South Wales, Australia, located at the end of the Tilligerry Peninsula and surrounded by the waters of beautiful Port Stephens .  Ever since I can remember there have been a few urban legends about a stretch of highway named Lemon Tree Passage Road. The story begins when a motor bike rider and his pillion passenger died after colliding with a four wheel drive killing both. This seems to be the source of the ghostly lights and apparition. These sort of events don't stay quiet in small townships. Stories spread fast often not ending up like they started. Every so often this urban legend makes a comeback with a number to people tempting fate and poking the ghost rider.             A memorial to Dale Dickens on the Lemon Tree Passage Road / Pic: Robert Mckell Source:The Daily Telegraph The  Lemon Tree Passage ghost  f...

Diary of a Ghost Hunter - The Wallacia Hotel

  We were given the opportunity of staying overnight at the Wallachia Hotel in Western Sydney. The hotelwas officially opened on December 3rd 1937. During the Second World War the hotel was used as the Army headquarters for radiopyhysics. I had never been to the Wallacia Hotel before, but, my ghost hunting gal pal Anne, had been there about 5 years ago with a group of Paranormal Investigators that she was working with at the time. We arrived and we were greeted by Craig, the night manager, who welcomed us with open arms.  Craig recognised Anne from the last time she had visited.  Anne asked whether any spooky things had been happening over the last few years. Craig said that he always thought that there was something a little bit weird going on late at night. Over the last few months everything had changed as the Hotel had been very much affected by the COVID lock downs This was a huge hotel with quite an interesting history even though in the whole scheme of things the h...

Headless Ghost Story from Port Stephens

  Headless  Ghost. A N.S.W. Mystery. A correspondent writes to a  Sydney paper : β€” Many years ago a retired sea captain built a large house in  a lonely spot at the junction of Limeburners' Creek and Karuah River (Port Stephens), and therein reared a large family, After the old dad' went west,' most of the family being married, the house was taken by a fisherman with a large family.   At night they were disturbed by footsteps, doors opening and shutting, crockery rattling and on moonlight nights the figure of a woman without a bead would be observed. As three fierce dogs were kept, no stranger could approach unmolested. On one occasion one of the sons fired point- blank at the figure, without effect. The fisherman's family were away, and the house remained closed. One night some young fellows from Karuah were fishing close by.   A storm coming on they took refuge in the empty house. They propped a log against the door, and lo,  ...
