A local librarian wants an exorcist called in to sort out a haunted lavatory. Gordon Jenns, 61, who has worked at Gravesend library for 14 years, says the ghost flushes the toilet when he thinks everyone's gone home.
"It's happened three times in the past 11 years, always around seven o'clock on a Friday," he told the Bexley Times. "It's very off-putting. The first time it happened I thought someone had broken in the back door so I went with something very heavy in my hand to give them a warm welcome.
"I'm absolutely certain the toilet flushed itself. The door was locked and the cistern was still filling up when I went in. I'm an ex-marine and not prone to hallucinations. I'm guessing the poor fellow only wants to relieve himself."
