The door is locked! I didn't lock it, you can only lock it with the key=

which is still in the ignition. (NOS door locks installed a month ago=20
thanks to Daniel S) So who locked the door when did they turned on the=20
lights? And how without a key?
So I climb in the boot, over the back seat, open the door and switch off=20
the lights. I tried starting it to make sure the battery wasn't low due=
=20
to the lights being on. It started OK but the tape player starts=20
playing. I did not turn it on.
Switch off the ignition, tape still playing the ghosts favorite song!!!
LOUD too. Key out of the ignition, music still blasting. Now I know the=20
tape player is wired thru the ignition, I wired it myself and it always=20
worked OK. Now I can't even lower the volume, it was at the ghosts=20
favorite level. Would not go up or down. Power off on the player, no dice.
So I told the neighbor it must be haunted. I left the keys in it again,=20
went out the drivers door, tested the door again to make sure it wasn't=
=20
locked, it was not.
Back to mowing the grass, the song ends and the tape player shuts off.
It was loud enough to hear across the street with a lawn mower running.
Finish the lawn chores and go to get in the A40. The door is LOCKED!!
Now I know it worked when I left it. I grab the extra keys, unlock the=20
door and the tape player starts playing before I even got in, and loud.
Fire it up, go for smokes while listening to some ghosts favorite songs.
At the store, I took the keys with me just incase Mr. Spirit wanted to=20
lock me out. He did not. Get back in and the tape player is off, push=20
power, it works fine, get home and park it and the tape player goes off=20
as it should. Test the door, it is not locked.
Now if this isn't a haunted LBC, I don't know what is.
I am not making any of this up.
I believe, I believe but I would really like to see him/her/it.
Now I wonder if this same ghost was the reason behind this car's not=20
