Thanks Haunted I am incredibly handsome but sorry I am spocken for.
That has reminded though tha once someone did think I was a ghost, seriously.
Now I live in a small village with a large private woods owned by the local farmer who owns loads of land round here. My other half used to be the house keeper at their manor house and on this particular occassion was catering for some posh dinner party.
This was in the middle of winter so it gets dark early. I went out to walk the dog in the woods. There was snow on the ground and it was murky. I was walking the dog off the main path and was wearing a duster coat and hat. My dog, Emily, is an old english sheepdog, and while we were walking along I could see someone on the main path heading in my direction. They glanced over and sped up. The went into the undergrowth on the other side and I just kept on going.
As it turns out they were a guest at the manor the house and once I had gone past they ran back to the house and were a bit flustered when they got there.
They said they had seen a strange figure in thewoods "floating" along with wolf next to them and were really quite scared. I reckon the floating refernece was due to it being dark and my coat coming down to my feet.
It was only when my other half overheard the commotion that she went to woman and described me and the dog that she realised what had happened.
Not really a ghost story as such, but it was amusing at the time and the the woman still gets stick for it now, and funnily enough it shook her up so now she won't go in the woods alone. :)
