hat would you do if
you had the psychic
gift, but didn’t want
it? Would you ignore
all the voices, spirits and signs that
surrounded you in an attempt to live a
‘normal’ life? Or would you reluctantly
harness your talent to help others?

That was the dilemma faced by
Darren Potter. Find out what he did

The ghost of a ship's cat
has seemingly been
caught on camera, on
board the wreck of a
legendary explorer’s
vessel. ‘Mrs Chippy’
worked as a mouser

on Ernest Shackleton’s
Endurance, on a doomed
voyage to the Antarctic. The
unfortunate feline was apparently shot by
Shackleton before the ship sank in 1915. The
wreck was recently discovered in Antarctica,
3000 metres deep on the seabed - and some
have noticed a pair of cat-like eyes staring out
from the deck...

A ‘haunted’ 18th Century pub that was
demolished without consent must be rebuilt
stone by stone, based on the original plans, say
council bosses. The Grade II listed Punch Bowl
Inn, in Hurst Green, Lancashire, was demolished
without permission in June 2021, leaving locals
up in arms. The drinking den was said to be
haunted by the ghost of infamous highwayman
Ned King - reportedly hanged from a tree
outside the pub after finally being caught. Fellow
highwayman Dick Turpin is another rumoured
former guest.

The angels have looked out for me all my adult

life. By Cathy Johnson, 52

ne morning in my twenties
I woke with the song Angel Eyes
by Wet Wet Wet stuck in my
head. It had been playing in my
dream - and it felt significant somehow...
I started reading up on dreams, angels
and other spiritual topics, soon learning
that coins and feathers were often signs
from the angels. After that, I regularly
found both wherever I went.
[also started keeping a dream diary
and, to my amazement, the dreams
I recorded would sometimes come true.
Like the time I dreamt of my boss
saying a certain strange phrase and noted
it down, only for him to say those exact
words in a meeting the next day!

Or when I dreamt of a friend coming to
my door carrying a letter with rabbits on.
When I looked up the meaning of rabbits
in my dream dictionary, it turned out they
were associated with feeling hurt or

vulnerable. Soon after, the friend I’d
dreamt of turned up at mine in a real state.

Then one day in 2007 I'd just dropped
my sons Aaron, then nine and Shaun,
seven, at school in Herne Hill, London,
and was hurrying to my job as a civil
servant when a petite middle-aged woman
in a green jacket stopped me and asked,
‘Can you tell me the way to Brixton?’

I’d just turned my head to point her in
the right direction when I felt two strong
hands on my shoulders, lifting and
rotating me 180 degrees, until I was facing
completely the other way.

‘What the...’ I spluttered, just as I heard
an eat-splitting cacophony of breaking
glass and crunching metal.

A yellow open-top sports car had
careered round the corner and straight
into someone’s front wall, sending bricks
and debris everywhere — including the
spot where I'd just been standing.

Me using
Luckily the driver was OK and, thanks
to whoever had moved me to safety,
I hadn’t a scratch on me either.

The petite lady who'd asked for
directions had been the only one close
enough to spin me around and I turned to
see where she was - only to find she’d
completely vanished!

As I walked away, shaken, I realised she
must have been an angel.

Three years on, the angels stepped
in again when I was made redundant.

I prayed for a job in a school or college
to come up, so I wouldn’t have to worry
about childcare in the school holidays.

When nothing was available, I went for
a full-time job in a law office. It was only
when the lady offered me the position she
said the job was term time only!

‘We didn’t put that in the ad as then you
get people applying just because of the
hours, she explained.

Yet again, my angels had delivered —
just as they always have!

As I’m linking to you,
Amy, I feel like there’s
been a lot going on
recently. Your mind has
been in a million and one
places and things have been
uncertain. You’re not 100 per
cent yourself and don’t know
where your path is leading.
Have you had a job change?
AMY SAYS HIT! Recently I’ve
gone through a very unsettling
time at work. There has been
a huge restructure and I’ve
been taken from a role I loved
and placed in a new team, not
knowing if I was going to like it
or if it was right for me. I’m still
finding my feet with it all.

You're a closed book
at times. The people
around you don’t
always know how
you’re truly feeling as you
mask it so well. You don’t
come across as stressed
and keep personal issues
to yourself. You’ve got a lot
going on, but you’re not
speaking about it.

AMY SAYS HIT! This is

very true! I call myself an
extroverted introvert. I’m
bubbly but will shut down
when things are tough. I'll
only speak about problems
once I have worked out

a way forward by myself.

I don’t like too many opinions
clouding my judgement.

My mum, Sue, says I’m like
a swan, serene but paddling
like crazy underneath!

The only
info our psychic
is given before
the reading is
the reader’s
name

I’ve got a lady in
spirit trying to come
through. She is eager
to connect and has a
very strong motherly energy.
I believe it’s your mum’s
mum. Could it be your nan?
AMY SAYS HIT! I had a feeling
it would be my nan coming to
see me. And I can just imagine
her being keen! It makes sense
you saying she has a motherly
energy as she looked after
me from a very early age.

| Jean with Amy
/

I went to nursery right
by her house and she
would take me and

collect me. In the
holidays I would
spend a lot of time
with her too, when my
parents were at work.

I’m getting a health
problem with your
mum. Is there an issue
with her legs that you
are worried about? Or if it’s
not your mum, it’s your nan...
AMY SAYS HIT! Yes, my nan
suffered with leg problems. In
fact, she was bed bound for the
last year of her life. She had
diabetes, heart issues... you
name it, she had it! For all my
life I never knew her to be
a well woman.

Nan is here with

healing. She says you

haven’t been treated

well in recent times.
It’s relating to a certain
situation that was unfair to
you and brushed under the
carpet. You’ve questioned if
you were to blame. But Nan
wants you to know it was not
your fault.
AMY SAYS HIT! There was

a family rift around the time

I got married because I went
to Vegas. I often wondered if
I should have kept the peace
and just wed in the UK! But
it’s nice to know Nan supports
me (she died five years before
I got married).

She points at her
wedding finger -
indicating that you
have her ring. Now
another spirit is coming
through. I believe it is your
nan’s sister...
AMY SAYS HIT! You’re right on
both counts! I do have Nan’s
ring and her sister, Eileen, is
in the spirit world. They were
inseparable. Eileen died a few
years after my nan. It’s nice to
know they’re together up there!

Do you understand the
name Jane? A ‘J’ name?
It’s being whispered
very gently.
AMY SAYS NEARLY! It’s not
quite that - but very close! My
nan’s name is Jean.

she’s with her sister and husband in spirit too.
