This isn't one of my jokes - it is absolutely true.

5 years ago - before I first met her - my wife and a friend went to see a clairvoyant who has quite a reputation in our area. He had a separate session with them both - during which he outlined their future and confirmed it a few days later with a 3 page typed document in greater detail. I have never had any belief in this mumbo jumbo - still don't.

My wife showed me the documemt about 6 months after we met and I must admit my eyebrows rose a little when I read the prediction about when and how she would meet someone, what he would be like and what it would lead to. It was a quite uncanny prediction of our first meeting and how things have actually developed.

Fast forward 5 years and my wife made an arrangement for the same clairvoyant to meet up with her and her three daughters last friday evening for a repeat performance for all four of them. He charges £50 a time so the guy would get £200 cash in hand for 3 hours "work". They arranged to meet at the house of one of her daughters whilst her husband was away on business.

The clairvoyant did not turn up and has not responded to Emails and calls on his mobile since. So they have no idea what went wrong.

There is an obvious joke to be made here - but I will leave others to make it.

Somehow I saw that coming.

Somehow I saw that coming.

Obviously he didn't.

Yes all quite predictable..  (hope they didn't pay him in advance..)

[AlanHo]

hope they didn't pay him in advance

Fortunately they did not

hope they didn't pay him in advance

Fortunately they did not

May be he predicted good weather for the Bank Holiday and he's gone to the beach  (pouring down here)

Maybe he's dead.
Or in prison. 

[AlanHo]

Maybe he's dead.
Or in prison. 

In which case he should have foreseen it coming and not made the appointment................

That is so interesting that I'd like to ask was it correct in all or was it correct in a "loose" way.

That reminds me of an old "Two Ronnies" sketch, where during the newsreading they said something along the lines of:

"A small-statured clarvoyant escaped from police tonight whilst being transferred from one police station to another.
Police have issued a Look Out To Be Kept For a small medium at large."

"It's goodnight from me.
And it's goodnight from him."

It was about 70% correct

Correct items
The month and year of our first meeting
My birth sign
I would have a grey car
I would be tall
I would be a widower whose wife died within the previous 5 years (it was actually 4)
We would get married within 5 years (it was 2)
We would travel a lot

Incorrect items
We would be introduced by a mutual friend
We would be the same age (I am 5 years older)
We would have a house in the country (we live on the edge of town so it was almost right)


I can't remember any more

Thanks..... So now where was he......

re country - so long as you are surounded by open/green spaces and not in the middle of a built up area I'd say that was OK

Pretty amazing really
