Do you believe in ghosts?

I love it how people have bypassed my post about the giant pebble. No one can explain that. My granddad passed away recently and strange things happened in my grandparents house before he was put back into mother earth.
I mean like stuff he use to do. Always use to turn the over tops on to warm up his hands as he believed it was better than a radiator.
The shower turned on when someone was on the loo. Also he use to love a cup of tea. The kettle kept going on as well. Now these items aren't faulty as they haven't done it since he were buried.
Think what you want but I cant see science coming up with an explanation for them events.

Something knocked or otherwise dislodged it, or possibly water got trapped underneath it causing it to slide slowly off the shelf?
Seriously. Sometimes things fall down, and occasionally they do so without an otherwise obvious cause. Sometimes it even happens at night. Is this evidence of the paranormal, or just the workings of life?
I turned on the light in our conservatory yesterday, and the ceiling fan came on. We don't use the ceiling fan (it's noisy and wobbles a bit), so why was it on? Should I blame an extremely bored poltergheist with nothing better to do, or accept that one of us pulled the switch by accident, or caught something on it?
Everyone's bypassed the pebble as it fell off, things fall of shelves and stuff all the time, if they aren't on properly or are an odd shape.
Loads of things can set them off, from walking and vibrations being transferred the house, especially with floating floors. To air movment or any number of other reasons.

Ok I will state this. Nothing was near it. Nothing was under it just the toilet cylinder. No one was near it as its at the opposite side to the shower. The peddle had at least 3" to the front the cylinder and had a lot more than that to either side. No one in the room other than a person in the shower. No windows open as the bathroom didn't have one.
I do not wish to be disrespectful to your Grandfather and this is not intended to hurt, but I've heard many, many "kettle ghost" stories from different people from different groups and families and believe this to be complete and utter tosh.
DEMNOMS.
So how can you go from not knowing what did it, to knowing it was a ghost?.
The honest thing to do would be say "I don't know", not "It was a ghost".
I've heard strange bumps in my house from time to do & guess what, I don't know what caused it.
But I'll assume it was something mundane as everybody experiences the same thing & we have yet to see any evidence for ghosts.
DENFIMITLY DEMNOMS
None taken. Still strange that it stop as soon as he was buried. The shower thing though is funny as it were my cousin in the bathroom and the shower is on a pull cord. With it being a wet room he got a soaking as the shower head were on the floor. Talk about timing.
Not saying it were a ghost but I'm not saying it wasn't. It would be hard to prove what it was.
Steam currents from the shower combined with water vapour making the pebble/toilet slippery.
Boom, done. Next.
So you believe ghosts have a physical presence?

I believe in flying Unicorns, Dragons, Trolls, One eyed beats and Virgin Angels.
Someone else in the house, going through a process of grieving and coming to terms with the death, subconsciously left things the way he liked to leave them. Solved.
I think they probably do but most adults try to rationalise what they thought they saw or dismiss it.
Children and animals with a more innocent mind would be better at seeing stuff like this I'd expect. Apparently the childminder for my girl had an experience with her at the hair dressers. Who knows, science doesn't have all the answers.
