The first time I actually saw a spirit was at the age of 13yrs. My sister aged 8yrs had died as a result of being knocked over by a car a couple of weeks before. I remember lying in bed that particular night feeling completely shell shocked and as you can imagine, devastated.

I lay there in bed in the room I shared with my now dead sister, facing the wall trying to sleep and make sense of what had happened when I had a very strong sense of someone else in the room. I knew someone was standing behind me at the side of the bed but knew no other member of the family had come into the room as the light on the stairs was on and would have flooded the room if they had entered.

I was too terrified to call out to anyone and lay there bathed in sweat until eventually I got the courage to turn over and see who was there. It was my sister. She looked as solid and she ever had in life and was dressed in clothes I had never seen before (I later found out these were the clothes she had been buried in). My sister spoke to me saying ' Please don't cry anymore. I am fine and we will be together again one day and when that day comes it will seem like a moment'.

I was truly blessed that day and the comfort it brought to me was indescribable. The grieving process doesn't go away despite the blessing of a visitation by someone you have lost, however knowing she was somewhere else but still 'alive' was a huge comfort to me and still is.

Sometimes we all get very powerful dreams about loved ones that have already passed over. I was lucky enough to have such a dream, which changed the course of my troubled relationship with my Mother.

I dreamt one night that my Mum was going to die. It was a very powerful dream and although I didn't feel frightened when I awoke I felt quite disturbed by it. It played on my mind all day and that evening I rang my elder sister to discuss it with her.

I was very worried that Mum would actually die not knowing I loved her and not knowing whether she loved me either. I decided it was worth the risk in trying to talk to her (not about the dream but our relationship). I did make the call and how glad and blessed I was. Against all odds Mum understood what I was saying and we really talked for the first time in our lives.

From that one phone call we rang each other almost every day and were making all kinds of plans to go out and do the things I had always wanted to do with her. Sadly that element of the story never came to anything as Mum was found dead at home about a month after my dream.

I see this as a blessed gift from spirit to give our family the opportunity to make amends and find each other even for such a short time. The evening before Mum died she rang me about 8.30pm and her last words to me were 'love you Jane'. I won't ever forget those words.

I suppose you might call me a bit of a sceptic when it comes to all this psychic stuff. I'm not sure if I have ever had a personal psychic experience or not, but having read Janey's psychic beliefs page, I may have without realising it. What I am sure of is that Janey has read for me in the past and she has accurately homed in on some things that she could not have known about. Fascinating.

More specifically and for this short article, let me tell you about Janey's 'Parking Angels'.

We live in a very busy town in England. All the UK residents reading this will know that car travelling in UK towns (or anywhere for that matter) can be a slow and lengthy experience, not least the subject of parking, but Janey has her helpers here... her parking angels.

I can drive into town on a busy day and easily spend 45 minutes plus, trying to get parked. Even trying to park a fair distance from the shopping centre rarely proves successful. As I am not the happiest of shoppers in the world I often just give up and go home.

But if Janey comes with me, regardless of how busy the town is, we never fail to get a parking space quickly and close to where we are going. The first time this phenomenon happened I was mumbling and moaning about the fact that we would not get parking.

"Not a problem. I just asked my parking angels for a space", said Janey.
"Your what?", says I.
"My parking angels", repeated Janey.
"Yeah right", says I.
"You'll see", Janey said confidently.

We got to the car park nearest the shopping centre. As we pulled in, a car backed out of one of the first spaces and we drove straight in (not even another frustrated driver to argue with about who's space it was).

"There, I told you my angels would help", Janey said.
"Luck, a one off", I said but grateful for the space. Janey remained confident that it was her angels that helped.

Well, after 5 years together and many gruelling shopping expeditions later, I have to report that when Janey is with me we never fail to get parked quickly and close to where we are going. It never fails. To the point once when we were driving around the car parks on a busy Saturday in deep discussion about something or other and had not really taken in that we were still looking for a space to park. Suddenly, in mid conversation, Janey said, "Oh, I forgot to ask my angels for a parking space. It's ok I've asked them now", (I didn't hear a word :). Sure enough, in a few seconds a car vacated a space and we were parking.

Janey tells me to ask my parking angels for a space when I am on my own. On the odd occasion, when I remember, I do ask them and it seems to work. Mind you, I have a long way to go to catch up with Janey's consistency with the Parking Angels.

Finally, something comes to mind as I write this, which intrigues me. Janey talks of, and to, her angels regularly, but she never speaks of specific types of angels except the 'Parking Angels'. Now I reckon that regardless of what Janey asks her angels, they are all guides and helpers in many ways, not just parking... I must ask Janey if my reckoning is correct. (I wonder if the angels wear parking warden's caps when they help us park?).

Janey. I don't make light of what you do or believe in... I am privileged to see at first hand the happiness and guidance you give to so many people with your psychic skills.

Keep up the good work!
