    I was in WH Smiths today looking at the magazines. One was entitled 'Psychic News'. The obvious question is why do they need it?

      There's a pub I drive past that sometimes advertises Psychic Nights on an A board outside. I've often wondered about the same thing, why advertise......and why meet? :biggrin:.

          It's even better when such an event gets cancelled due to "unforeseen circumstances".

          But seriously, these events are when a person who claims to be psychic pretends to relay messages from dead loved ones to vulnerable people who pay for the privilege.

          I imagine the only message you would get from dead people is "See you later" :biggrin:

            I often wonder how many cows and sheep are up there trying to contact their relatives.

              I have actually seen the signs for one of those evenings with a banner across it "Cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances". I nearly crashed the car laughing.

                Lucky that you managed to avoid having to send a message from the netherworld @KT53 :biggrin:

                They’re saying “don’t get in the lorry” “don’t get in the lorry”.

                  Slightly different, no, completely different, but how about the the flyer for the village Fete, all the usual stuff plus the red arrows, if wet it will be held in the village hall.
