I am not discounting anything to do with fairy folk after my stay in a 200 year old fisherman's cottage in Mevagissey Cornwall a few years ago.

3 very peculiar and unlikely accident injuries (burned arm on frying pan, stabbed my leg with freakish flying knife, and bad fall off last but one step into storage heater -bashed knee) within 15 minutes of each other on the first day. Yes I put out water for the piskies (Cornish pixies) every day until we left.

Uhn uhn! Not wise to ignore!
