Across the UK, across continental North America and around the world on the internet by webcast and by podcast,

my name is Howard Hughes and this is the unexplained.

Good to have you there. Thank you very much for all of your nice emails and comments.

If you have been expecting a reply to an email from me and you haven't had it,

please remind me I'm a little bit behind myself,

as I'm just still recovering from this bug that I had,

a little bit like flu or something like that.

Whatever it was, it kept me out of action for the big part of a week.

I don't think I've had anything like that in years,

but you were very kind with all of your suggestions and the nice things you said

and your messages of encouragement as I lay there.

But I'm still sounding a little bit chasty, you know,

might kind of improve the voice who knows.

Thank you very much to Adam, as ever, at Creative Hotspot for getting the show out to you

and for his work on the website.

Thank you to Haley as well for her efforts in booking the guest that we find here.

I want to do a couple of shout outs before the guest on this edition

who is an old friend of this show, the man behind and he is prolific.

I think there are more than a dozen now haunted sky's books, John Hanson.

He is a meticulous researcher, which comes from his working background in the police in the UK.

It just means that you collect things, you collect documents,

and you'll see all of those if you've never seen any of these books.
