Twelve Jackson sighting in S-W England

QUESTION: The day before yesterday, I could have sworn I saw Michael Jackson emerging from my local branch of Boots the Chemist. I knew that it was him because he seemed to be walking forward, but was in fact walking backwards. It took him over two hours to get around the shop, and it's really a wonder that he ever managed to leave it at all. Have there been any other sightings of Michael Jackson since he tragically died?

There have been no fewer than 12 sightings of Michael Jackson in the South-West of England alone, though one of them later turned out to be Michael Martin, the former Speaker of the House of Commons, who was on holiday in Tintagel at the time.



At Bridgewater in Somerset, a mother of two spotted Michael Jackson moonwalking out of an Oxfam shop carrying a single white glove to go with the white glove he was already wearing.

'I sensed that he had always promised himself a second glove,' she said at a press conference, 'and that he felt now was as good a time as any to take the plunge.'



In Calne, Wiltshire, Michael Jackson was spotted by retired farmer Geoffrey Manning having his hair washed and blow-dried at The Hair Today Salon. 'I could tell it was Michael because he was with Elvis Presley,' says Mr Manning.

'The two of them were in the middle of a heated discussion about Jordan and Peter Andre, so I didn't like to disturb them for autographs and suchlike.'
