I'll start. Mediums, Psychic and Clairvoyants absolutely infuriate me. People that pretend to get messages from the dead in order to sell tickets to people that are grieving are literally the lowest of the low. Not only do they seem to pack out pubs at £10 a ticket but have seen some liked on Facebook where you pay £3 per text message to get some generic nonsense after you've given them all your information. So I checked out a few of the people who'd paid for this service or paid to get responses to their posts on Facebook. Turns out Janet (we'll call her) has posted publically that (using a made up example that's essentially the same) her dad had died last month, that he was suffering from cancer, that he was a Wigan fan and that she'd taken in his dog. This psychic responded to say her dad was at peace now and not in pain, he missed her and the dog but Wigan's promotion made him smile. Basically nothing in the responses wasn't on Facebook. I don't know how these people can genuinely sleep at night, making up a load of rubbish to make money off peoples suffering and desperation. Plenty of comedians have destroyed them. We are supposed to believe that Dave has died and wants to speak to his wife but has the hump so will only give the initial D FFS!

I should add that about 6 weeks ago I saw one of the ones in Ipswich advertised genuinely as 'Cancelled Due To Unforeseen Events'. I kid you not. It was saying it would be rearranged and tickets would be honoured. Would you seriously want to return to see a Psychic who couldn't see this cancellation coming!

Clairvoyants are a big bug of mine as my daft mother in law used to swallow all the rubbish. She used to go to The Regent gigs and before the start in the foyer someone would come round and collect slips of paper that the audience had filled out.
"Who are you trying to contact", "What was the relationship", "What did he / she like" etc etc.

Never a straight answer. Despise agencies.
Did you take full advantage of the free tea though?

I've gotten very good now at recognising from the BS description exactly which company it is they are talking about.

i would have smashed into that free tea like a thirsty camel in the Saharan desert.
It was probably free, but sadly you were banned from leaving your desk for more than thirty seconds at a time.
Anyhow,
Did you know, tea is actually poisonous to camels?
