I saw it on TV This doctor was walking around the streets making people put a pencil in their mouth; apparently it makes them smile and tricks the brain into thinking the person is happy, and the brain releases some sort of chemical when you smile  |

I saw something similar about Belfast - it said everyone was Irish and a big wall divided the city and if you were English you'd get killed within an hour.

Belfast is the same - it's a hole, and there is a big wall were all these wee asbos throw stones and bottles over at each other because they have nothing else to do
D B Sweeney, have you ever taken the ghost tour of the vaults or Grefriars? |

Yes, I've done both - several times. Great for believers and Tourists.

You could probably get into Greyfriars and, more importantly, the Covenanters area (where the 'action' is) but you won't get into the underground vaults without going on a tour.
If you do get to Edinburgh Cactus, let me know and we'll hook up for a few beers and I'll show you the city proper.

I'll probably go on a tour of both, in case I pass out (as is reported) and nobody is there. It would be my luck that some poltergiest would beat me up when no-one is about
Will do DB, but I don't think you'll want to drink with me; I'm a fish
1 pint/half hour  |

You won't get scared Cactus - you've read too many of my 'debunking' posts when it comes to ghosts
I eat fish for supper

That's 1 pint every half hour literally until I get thrown out, and after 2 pints I can't walk I hope you're a good babysitter  |
