I know that some people will say it's a con but it should be interesting either way. I'm really looking forward to it.

Are you hoping he will have something to say to you?

He's come to Spain, which I am really shocked by. I have a few people who could pay me a visit but I am not hoping for anyone in particular and don't really need to hear from anyone. Would be nice though.

OOh are you? I think I'd like to see Sally Morgan. She's had a little show recently on itv2 I think, looked very good!
I've seen Colin Fry before, not had him read me. "alright my love", gives me the heebies when he gets really close to the person's story. Great stuff though!

Fransmom, is there anyway of preparing yourself to make a message more likely? My mum could do with hearing from someone.

I'd like to see Sally Morgan. I;ve only seen her recently on the tv a couple of times. I am going to see John Edward in September though . He's the master imho

Hmm I don't like John Edwards, I think he gets close on some things but phishes for a lot too. He's a little aggressive for my liking. I reckon Sally costs a lot

You're not mixing him up with Derek Acorah are you?

Heee, Derek Acorah makes me laugh when he gets taken over by spirits on most haunted.

I think Colin has got better, if that's possible but I still think John Edwards beats them all with the exception of Sally from what i've seen. Each to their own

He does what! I miss UKLiving. He always strikes me as someone who'll ask no questions give no answers kinda guy. As if he knows someone, who knows someone, who'd do something naughty for the right dosh.

Tony Stockwell (i'm sure it was him and not COlin Fry) came to NZ. My friend was called onto stage. Her toddler died in a terrible car accident. He apparantly described everything exactly. Very scary. SHe thought he was wonderful. She found it such a help as she was driving at the time when a lorry drove into them. She and her other child were completely unharmed. She said she would tell everybody in a similar situation to go.

i think they both toured new zealand. How wonderful for your friend to get some reassurances.

I agree derek A does look dodgy, some of his possessions, for want of a better word are hysterical, real drag queen stuff.

I've seen Colin Fry - really enjoyed it. Tony Stockwell was with him as a guest medium. The messages they got for people were brilliant - without prompting.

lucy5 just relax, take some tissues and a notebook maybe. that way if he does talk to you, you have something to write on because with the best will in the world you may not remember everything later on.

i like tony stockwell, tho not in the way lucy likes colin he came to my town a few months back and he got a lot of messages and quite a few people were helped too.

Well, it was terribly disappointing. I don't doubt that Colin Fry has some psychic ability but this was like something out of a fairground.

He came onto the stage wearing an electric blue tonic suit [think godfather or good fellas] and patent[sp] leather winkle pickers and was sporting a rather natty mini-mohican!!!!!!!!!! I couldn't quite believe what i was seeing. He's either going through a midlife crisis, glad to be gay or has got his head firmly shoved up his on .

Anyway, all of this is superficial but I am just trying to set the scene. He clearly was run down and was struggling with his voice. Due to rubbish advertising, the theatre was half empty. I really got the impression that he was going through the motions.

There were a couple of good readings[truly psychic ones} in amongst a pile of rubbish. I didn't expect every reading to be life shattering but to be honest it was quite embarrassing. He was coming up with things that no-one would or could claim. After a while it became desperate and he was working with the most tenuous of links and it was apparent that the message was being changed and manipulated.

I think by this time he had had enough and came up with a few more obvious clues to try and get someone read. Using hints that really could have applied to anyone of a certain age in the audience. For example A wooden-lidded stereogram, ducks on wall, burt bacharach records etc.

By the end it had become excruciatingly [sp] embarassing. He came to a Japenese man, with a small timid lady who was advising him to brush up on his oragami skills and that his family would be attending a celebration with flowers on the water. The Japenese man's group were squirming with embarassment.

My final bug bear was that during the "any questions section", Colin Fry didn't really answer the very basic questions but managed to plug his book, cards,school etc.

I came away with a heavy heart feling very disillusioned. I suppose I had paid to see a show and this is what I got and presumerably spirits don't perform to order.

Sorry for going on!
