What a creepy day this has been.

I'm living with my parents. Yes, it's a sad situation to be in at my age, but since I was made redundant, it's about all I can afford.

Anyway, I've been out all day today. At lunchtime, I get a call on my mobile. It's my mum. A bottle of vodka and a box of matches which have been on my computer desk in my room for months - and were still there when I left this morning - are lying in the middle of my bedroom floor.

This is strange for several reasons: if they had fallen from the desk, they should be beside the desk, not in the middle of the floor; the bottle would have broken; the bottle could not possibly roll from its original position to where it was found - there is a chair in the way.

So anyway, I say that it's strange, but think no more of it. Until I get home tonight, that is.

After a cup of coffee, I go up to my room to check my e-mails. After packing some items for eBay last night, I left a tape gun on the floor. Tonight, this was on my bed.

Also in my room are a soft toy Garfield which I got for Christmas, and a statue of the Egyptian Goddess Bastet (a cat, basically) which I bought myself some time ago. These items are normally on opposite sides of the room. Both of these were also on my bed. Neither could have got there by falling.

Finally, I have a little green 'alien' which sits on top of my monitor. Tonight, this was in front of my monitor, sitting on some Post Office receipts for eBay sales I'd posted. It couldn't have fallen into the position it was in.

I know how stupid this sounds. I don't believe in ghosts, but I don't not believe in them either; I'm quite open-minded about the subject. Mum & dad swear blind it's nothing to do with them, and I believe that 100% - it's not their style at all. My mum is superstitious and terrified of things like this, and so wouldn't dare play such a joke on anyone else.

First thoughts were that someone had been in the house, but this isn't possible as someone has been at home all day. Which also means that, had the bottle fallen from the desk, someone would have heard it. Besides, nothing is missing, and there are plenty of easily removable and valuable items in my room that an intruder could easily have walked out with.

So... SIX items moved inexplicably from where they were this morning. To say we're finding it slightly creepy would be a bit of an understatement.

And no, I won't be asking to sleep in mummy and daddy's bed tonight.

Nope, nothing at all. It's not a vibration thing. These items have moved in some cases up to around 6 feet. Not to mention vertically upwards.

Weird or what! I get that happen sometimes, but not a lot.

I dont think it would be a robber it nothing is missing
I dont think it would be your parents if they are scared already
So i reckon you could have ghosts mate!

You should get someone in and do the Luigi Board or whatever it is called

I had a wierd going-on yesterday.

We're due to move out of our Flat next Month, and are already taking viewings. So on Sunday, I completely cleaned up my computer room. Now, part of that was filling my DVD racks up with all the boxes lying around.

I get in yesterday and there is one empty slot on one of the racks.

Now, this isn't as spooky as your experience, but I can truthfully say I completely filled those racks up and haven't touched them since the clean-up.

I think it's my ITV Digital Monkey.

I think the key, and thus the solution, to this perplexing mystery can be found in your first sentence:

"...a bottle of vodka and a box of matches..."
