All Good Things!

Having started 1-2-1's sittings and personal tuition again recently I had forgotten how much I enjoy them. I have had a break for almost a year from giving them locally but am now pleased to be seeing existing friends as well as meeting new ones.
One of the aspects of my work that I love is the many different ways of working with Spirit and my diary is at the moment a fairly equal mix between teaching, demonstrations and private sittings. I am often asked to lecture as well which is always a joy - I just love talking about Spirit!
I am heading of To Coberhill next Sunday for a few days with the Lynwood Fellowship to give workshops and lectures and as this is one of my favourite venues I am looking forward to it imensley. The fellowship is full of very nice people so it should be a jolly old time indeed:)

This week I have just started working on developing a very exciting new project with a good friend of mine and when finalised all will be revealed. I am buzzing with excitement at the prospect of bringing this unique opportunity to life so be sure to watch this space !!

On a different note I was personally affected by the passing of Michael Jackson this week. Everyone will have their own views on this but as a Spiritualist I know that even though he will have fulfilled what he came here to do, it's the grief of Michaels family, friends and fans that touches me.
I feel very blessed to believe that there is a life onwards from this one but I still grieve for those things that are familiar to us human beings,which are then taken from our physical lives.
I hope now having returned home to Spirit that Michael finds peace and solace from the challenges in his life. May this remind us all of how much we need to appreciate each other and every moment of our lives with people we love before we blink and they are gone.

Hi Everyone,
Another hugely busy month has passed since the last entry which leaves me to think 'where does the time go?'
I was invited to go to Witney, Oxfordshire once again earlier in the month to give a dem and 2 day workshop for 'Third Eye Workshops' a highly successful project founded and run by Debbie Blakeney. There is so much interest in spiritual subjects in that area and the dem was well attended as were the workshops. As always the people were very warm and friendly and I had a great time...just hope they all did lol!
That was followed by a dem at Jenny's Sancuary, Banbury on a lovely sunny Sunday afternoon a week later and the atmoshere was just great for clear evidence, lots of contacts as well as some riotous fun with some very lively Spirit folk:)
So in addition to my Thursdays teaching at The College of Psychic Studies, other groups, I am now making appointments again for 1:1 sittings and personal tuition, details which can be found on my website.
Already some great opportunities are coming to fruition for later this year and also 2010 with at least one invite to work in Spain, Gibraltar, Istanbul and early plans for Greece and Cyprus. I consider myself very blessed to love my work and feel very excited about so many things....

Tomorrow Evening (May 29th)I have the great privilege to share the platform at the College in a demonstration of Art and Mediumship with my friend and colleague, June-Elleni -Laine.
We both talk considerably and are vibrant approach to our work so it should be a very lively evening......come and join the fun - details on my diary page as usual.

Magician V Medium Experiment

Taking part in this event gave me one of the most profound experiences in the time I have been working as a medium for many different reasons.

Organised by Fright Nights, Hosted by Ciaran O'keefe and held at The Dragon Hall Covent Garden this experiment between Magician Peter Campbell -Wells and myself was not so much a versus but more of a demonstration of how cold reading by Peter and mediumship by myself are two totally separate processes.

I admit to feeling under pressure (who wouldn't!) for the event but those who know me also know that I am always ready for a challenge and so when I was invited to demonstrate at the event I could not refuse..
For me the importance of this demonstration is something that very much needed to be achieved and shown because as we mediums know only too well, we are constantly thought to use 'Cold Reading' techniques in place of genuine mediumship.

Peter gave a good demonstration of 'tricks of the mind' which have been suggested over the years are techniques used by mediums and psychics, and then I gave a demonstration of mediumship which was challenging to say the least.
However it soon became clear that the arising challenges gave the opportunity for me to show that a cold reader would have simply fitted seemingly misplaced information to anyone willing to take it rather than let a connection go if the right recipient could not be found.

Feedback from the public and the organisers clearly indicated that the afternoon had been a success in separating the two processes which was a great result. I am so pleased to have been a part of the experiment.

Spain and Gibraltar April 2009

Just returned from 10 days in Spain and Gibraltar having had a really great time even if the schedule was somewhat punishing at times!!
With 40ish 1-2-1's, 2 dems, a workshop, healing sessions and tutorials all done I finally landed back in the UK midnight on Wednesday evening. As always the people out there are so embracing of all things Spiritual so it's easy for Spirit to work well and as always it's nice to see old friends and new.
The sun actually came out and stayed out this time which was a miracle in the making!
Now I am looking forward to going out again in 2010 and big thanks to Frankie and Lourdes for putting in the time to organise such a busy schedule.

The main question now for me has to be 'How do I live without Tapas until then?' :) x

Hi All,
It's been a very busy 10 days with theatre evenings, journeys to The College of Psychic Studies in London for classes and 1-2-1's and I have travelled almost 1000 miles in that time.
A slightly 'hairy' situation occurred whilst travelling on the A1 to a dem at The Hawth in Crawley on Friday as we had a puncture so instead of a nice easy drive to avoid the Friday traffic at the Dartford Crossing, we spent most of that time huddled against the howling wind on the hard shoulder waiting for the RAC as the wheel was firmly stuck.
We arrived at the Theatre with 15 minutes to spare before the start of the Dem (no stress there then) but thankful that the traffic fairies and the RAC got us there at all!
That said it was a lovely night with lots of healing messages and laughter as always, so if you were there, thank you for being a great supportive audience.

If you were at the dem in Martham, Norfolk last night it was great to see old friends and new and a big shout for Norman, Jenny and team for running such an excellent evening. I was amazed at the number of people who attended the evening from Martham and surrounding villages and for the support for mediumship in that part of the world.
Thanks everyone and see you again next year!

Theatre Dem, Stevenage 18th March

A huge thank you to all who came along to support us at The Gordon Craig Theatre, Stevenage last night.It was great to see so many people supporting each other when messages were given even if they didnt have one themselves and that kind of generosity of spirit always makes me smile.
In the second half, for the first 20mins, I actually stepped back in time to a way I often used to work as a newly 'fledged' medium by asking audience members the relationship of someone they would love to hear from and then asking that spirit if they could join us and give us their evidence.
It was a very successful experiment and raised the atmosphere even higher than it was.
Tommorrow night I am looking forward to The South Holland Centre, Spalding where the DVD was filmed almost a year ago....hope to see you there.

Spain and Gibraltar April 2009

I cannot quite believe that it's coming around to that time of the year when I head off to dear old Gibraltar once again. I am always excited to go out there because there is such a need for mediumship in those parts and I am looking forward to seeing my lovely existing clients again as well as welcoming new ones.
Another exciting aspect of my visit this time is that I am working in Spain before Gibraltar, organised by my good friend Frankie Hatton, interviewer on my DVD. I shall be giving a Dem in Estepona, a workshop and 1-2-1's before going over to Gibraltar for a Dem and 1-2-1's.
Being very English I usually go dressed like a tourist but for every visit to date it has rained from the moment I get off the plane until the moment I get back on it - locals be warned, from 11-22nd April dont leave home without your brolly....

Details of this trip are available through the diary page on this site x
