Not quite got the hang of puns yet then.
It's physics, you can boot something cylindrical and it will very often roll one way, spin on the spot for a second and spin back in the opposite direction very forcefully. You can try it with pens, toilet rolls, it needs certain conditions but it's quite common. You have not witnessed a ghost but self-inverted momentum. Sleep easy.
I have always been open minded about ghosts etc. After the game yesterday something happened which has freaked me somewhat and I cannot explain it.
I park my car in my office car park and then jump on the bus to get to The Amex. When I got back to the office last night I thought I would pop in to use the bog and this is something I have done often. We have one open plan office, a meeting room, kitchen area and the bogs, and all can be seen from the entrance hall. I deactivated the alarm, locked the door and the office was in complete darkness, I switched on the lights and proceeded to the little boy's room.
To keep the story short I sat in the cubical and then dropped the bog roll which hit my foot and rolled out under the door. I then thought I was going to have to do a cowboy walk to retrieve it when it shot back under the door. When I say shot back it did not roll as it was spinning, it was as if it had been kicked.
I left the office the way I came in and nobody else was around. Needless to say I am a little freaked.
Anyone else experienced anything similar or do you have an explanation?
Bit like a yo yo?It can be explained by the following
1)Toilet roll looks like it rolls out under the door
2)You pull the roll or stop the end of the roll and this causes the roll to jerk and start to return under the door.
These things happen, there is a physics type of explanation and most definitely they are NOT ghosts or poltergeists, believe me.

Thanks all for the explanations. But I could discount all of them and it remains unexplained.
A further update and incident is that one of the cleaners last night was locked in that same toilet. She claims that a colleague must have locked her in for a laugh but her colleague claims otherwise.
