Then proceeded to tell me about my children. I have none.

Mentioned about me having just moved house. I hadn't, and still haven't.

Said my friend was pregnant. She'd had a hysterectomy.

Claimed my father had problems with his car (saw him driving into the driveway in an 8 year old car.... every likely hood an 8 yr old car would have 'something' needing attended to).

You get the drift....... £40 a pop as well......

A lot of my family believe in it and I admit in the past I've been taken in. When you lose loved ones I think it's very easy to fall into the trap. But it's exactly that. A trap that they prey on. Makes you sick

Surely if you had such a gift you'd give it freely. Not for £40 an hour or whatever

It's like everything else in life Kerry.... people learn from their mistakes: but yes, they do pray on the very vulnerable at times.

I'll have you know she was first rate..... a first rate con-merchant!

Absolutely.

Can remember watching a Louis Theroux documentory 'outing' them. Well, more "Spiritualists" and "Healers" with the odd medium thrown in

Funnily enough, he was slung out when he questioned them
