Tell them what has happened then see what they say. They might be having you on but can't imagine why they would go so far.

Ghost have been known to call from numbers which no longer exist and from houses occupied by other people. Could be one of your victorian rellies. :-)

Margaret - it could just be a genuine error - maybe they reversed one of the numbers or summat? Did the person you spoke to confirm the area was the same as you'd been told??

Yes Anne they did even the town where they were but it was a male voice and the person i am emailing was a lady I have just emailed this lady again so i will just have to wait and see now Margaret

It could be that someone was in the room and they didn't want the conversation overheard for whatever reason. June
