Young Tom opened the circle in Prayer this evening - the table hopping from leg to leg as he did so.

Red Cloud comes to the table and the table begins to dance in the centre of the circle, again hopping from leg to leg. We welcome Red Cloud who immediately asks for the shamanic drum. The red light is put on to bring in the drum and we see a very excited table rocking in the centre of the circle. As the light goes off Red Cloud picks up the beater and begins his rhythmic beat on the drum - seconds later the drum and beater are up in the air and over to Anne. Red Cloud places the drum on Anne’s head and continues to beat it loudly - “Thank you, that was beautiful.” says Anne as the drum is lifted off her head and is seen to move across to Annabelle.

The drum, still beating, then moves over to Kath, where it is placed on her chest - “What a wonderful vibration, it goes right through you.” says Kath - [What the other sitters didn’t know, and what Kath did not mention at the time, was - Kath suffers from angina and was experiencing chest pain just before the drum was placed on her chest - the pain disappeared.]

The drum, still with this rhythmic beat, then moved across to Pam, and from Pam over to Doris and me (Terry). Moments later Red Cloud puts the beater on the table, we then hear his hand beating the drum - from Doris over to Alison with the drum. The beats get faster and we hear two hands now on the drum - this goes on for over a minute - “Fantastic!” says Anne.

As the drumming stops Red Cloud places the drum on the table for James to remove. Kath then asks if we may buy and introduce some bongos and a Xylophone to the circle - “Yes.” says Red Cloud.
“Enjoy.” says Red Cloud as he leaves us.

Dick (Kath’s Father in Spirit) comes to the table and Kath asks “Is my Mother (Mary) about?” “Yes.” says Dick as he lifts the table up and takes it across to Kath. From Kath the table is taken to Annabelle where it is placed on her knee by Dick - we ask for the red light so we may see - “Yes.” says Dick.
The light goes on and we see the table vibrating on Annabelle’s knee - “I can’t believe how strong it is (the energy holding the table on her knee).” says Annabelle. We are allowed to take a photo and then the light is put off. Seconds later the table is up off Annabelle’s knee and out of the circle behind her where the pine table sits - Annabelle and Kath then tell us that the circle table has been placed upside-down on top of the pine table, and that it is spinning round like a record on the pine table. Moments later, the circle table is up and over Kath’s head and down onto Anne’s knee, immediately after this the pine table then comes in and seats itself on Annabelle’s knee.

Dick then manoeuvres both table into a position in the centre of the circle whereby the pine table is teetering on the edge of the circle table. We are then allowed to take a photo of this, so all sitters hands are moved to make sure that it is obviously not them holding the table in any way, and a photo is taken with normal flash camera in red light.

We put the light off and immediately the top table sits down on the circle table, the two tables then rise up above us towards the ceiling. They drop gently back to the floor, and the top table then rises back up towards the ceiling - “It feels weightless.” says Annabelle as her fingertips, like other sitters touch the corner of the table as it rises up.
The table comes back to the floor and Dick begins to communicate - “Megaphones (large trumpets).” says Dick.

Both trumpets are placed on the circle table; they are whisked up instantly by Dick - one over to Alison, inches from her nose, then both up above us, dancing in the air. As they come down to eye level, one goes over to James - Dick then places James’s hand inside the wide end of the trumpet and guides his hand across the table towards Tom (whilst inside the trumpet). The second trumpet now taps James on the head before going across to Tom and tapping him on the head. From Tom the trumpet flies out of the circle behind Kath and back into the circle between James and Pam, where it begins to tap their shoulders, alternating between them for a few seconds.

The trumpet then flies across the circle to Tom, where it is placed on his arm, and like James, Tom’s arm is guided across the table by Dick.
We put on the red light to find the circle table with the pine table upside-down on top of it, Tom and James’s arms inside the trumpets resting across the legs of the upturned table which is now rocking on top of the circle table. A photo is taken and the light is put off - we then hear Dick blowing down the trumpets, alternating between each.
Seconds later the trumpet is off James’s arm and over to Annabelle, from Annabelle the trumpet travels round all sitters, touching hands and faces as it passes them in the darkness.

The trumpet stops and hovers in front of Doris’s face - “Hello.” says Doris - seconds later we hear Dick say “Hello.” down the trumpet. We then hear Dick blow kisses down the trumpet for Doris. “I’ve been waiting for that, thank you.” says Doris. Moments later the trumpet is over the top table’s legs tapping them rapidly - from there over to me where it drops into my lap. Seconds later it is lifted up again by the wide end (where the luminous tabs are) and taken back to the table where it taps the legs again.

The top table now moves away from the circle table and is lifted out of the circle by Dick and placed on the floor behind Annabelle. Dick then communicates through the circle table “Mary (Kath’s Mum) is here.” “Is she coming in your place?” asks Kath. “Yes.” says Dick. “Will you be back?” asks Kath. “Yes.” says Dick. “I’ll be back!” says Kath jokingly - Laughter from Dick through the table.

The trumpet begins to rise up again from the table, and each and every sitter says ‘hello’ as the trumpet approaches their faces in the darkness. As the trumpet hovers in front of my eyes, I say “hello Mary.” The trumpet then lowers down and taps my hand, signifying that my hand should be lifted slightly so Mary can put it inside - I ask “Do you want my hand inside?” the trumpet nods once for ‘yes’ - I put my hand out and Mary puts the trumpet onto my hand. The trumpet is then pushed up my arm to my elbow (my arm now inside the trumpet) and Mary begins to turn it round and round on my arm.
“Is the other trumpet still on Tom?” asks Kath. “Yes.” says Tom. I then say “Oh, she (Mary) is pulling me now, I can feel her hand on the trumpet. My gosh, the strength in the hand.” [I can only describe it as like a vice tightening on the outside of the trumpet - not to hurt me, just to hold me - still powerful all the same]

Kath then asks why there are two circles of light - I explain that Mary is now spinning the trumpet round in circles in the air with my arm inside, and the circles of light are from the luminous tabs on the trumpet.

The hand is still tight on the trumpet - holding me in place - “Mary, you’ve never had such a strong grip.” say I jokingly. [Mary was ninety two years of age when she passed to the Spirit World]
I can now feel a thumb on one side of the trumpet and fingers on the other side forming the grip as the trumpet is only made of thick card. The trumpet, with my arm inside, is facing out towards Annabelle seated opposite me - Annabelle tells us that she can feel the trumpet brushing her arm and that it is squashed where Mary’s hand should be - I still feel the hand’s strong grip on me, but Annabelle only feels a squashed trumpet!? So strange! “Bizarre.” says Kath.

Seconds later, I say “Listen, listen.” as a very soft voice speaks down the trumpet. I tell Mary that I could not make out what she had said. Again this soft voice comes down the trumpet - so I say “What was that Doris?” (Doris was seated next to me) “I think she is saying ‘Love you’.” says Doris. Mary signifies ‘No’ by moving the trumpet from side to side on my arm.
“Was it ‘Miss you’?” asks Doris. “No.” says Mary, again signifying with the trumpet.
“Was it ‘Bless you’.” asks Kath. “Yes.” says Mary with a nod of the trumpet.

“Bless you too Mary.” say I. “Are you happy Mam?” asks Kath. “Yes.” says Mary (through the table). “Good.” say I. Seconds later Mary pulls the trumpet off my arm and takes it over to Kath and Annabelle, then taps Kath and Anne on the head before tapping Kath and Annabelle on the hands - very fast from one to the other.

The trumpet is now up above us creating a wide circle of light as it spins round and round.
“Can you feel the wind?” asks Anne as the trumpet spins faster and faster. Moments later, the trumpet on Tom’s arm is being pulled off, and we now have two trumpets in the air above us. Mary then gives us the gyroscopic effect as both trumpets spin round and round in the air, crossing each others path as they do so - so fast, as if intertwined.
They are now out of the circle behind Kath and Annabelle, still creating this gyroscopic effect - first clockwise and then anti-clockwise. [marvellous to watch in the darkness]
“That is incredible!” says Annabelle as the trumpets spin faster and faster.

And back to the table the trumpets go - “That was fantastic Mary.” say various sitters. A few seconds later, both trumpets are thrown out of the circle between Doris and myself by Mary.
The table then lifts up above us and turns sideways, then it is upside-down. I then comment on the fact that the energies are different, a calm energy - Annabelle agrees.
The table is now back on the floor in the centre of the circle - “Bye.” says Mary through the table.

Dick is back on the table now - “You taught her well Dick.” say I (regarding Mary’s amazing trumpet work). “Practice.” says Dick through the table. “God Bless you.” say sitters as Dick leaves us.

Millie (Annabelle’s daughter in Spirit) now comes to the table - “Hello Mum, James.” says Millie through the table. “Hello Darling.” says Annabelle. “Hello Millie.” says James. The table then move across to Annabelle and James in turn to say hello.
Millie then asks for the string and plasticine (play-doh) through the table - as I put on the red light to find them the table begins to rock excitedly in the centre of the circle. Kath then asks “Do you want the cutters (shape cutters for play-doh).” “Yes, three.” says Millie through the table.
As I lay the string and play-doh on the table and turn off the red light we see movement on the table (the cutters have luminous tabs on them) - we then hear Millie manipulating the play-doh (a rubbing sound) - “Thank you, that’s lovely.” says Anne as Millie touches her.

We then hear each sitter in turn say that a hand is tying their wrists over the table with the string, eventually my hands are tied also.
Most of us comment on how warm the hand is that is doing the tying - “Oh!” says Annabelle.
I ask “What is the matter?” “She (Millie) has just grabbed my wrist, a full hand has just grabbed me!” We then hear something being slapped pretty hard on the table - Millie then says “Hard!” “Is it (the play-doh) too hard?” I ask. Millie doesn’t reply, but continues to slap it harder and harder on the table. I explain that the play-doh has been wrapped up in the séance room for a few days and maybe I should have changed it, but promised to get some fresh for next time.

Millie perseveres and continues to manipulate the play-doh on the table - seconds later, Millie asks for the pencil (through the table) - “That would be a good trick if I could do it, I am still tied up over the table.” say I jokingly. I ask if I may remove one of my hands to get the pencil - “Yes.” says Millie. I put the pencil (with luminous tabs on its stem) on the table and it immediately begins to rise up - we haven’t a clue at this stage just what Millie is doing with it, but soon find out.

“Have you put yourself back in the string?” asks Kath. “No, I have a feeling I will be taking a photo shortly.” say I. We continue to watch in the darkness as Millie moves things around on the table - Annabelle then tells us that Millie has put something in her hand, and that she can feel the fingernails on Millie’s hand as she touches her. “She (Millie) has given me something too, she has given me some play-doh.” says Anne.
Annabelle then tells us that Millie has just slapped her hand and moved it away from the play-doh on the table [laughter].

We now see the pencil rise up in the air and move across to Annabelle - “She is giving it to me.” says Annabelle - “Give me a high five.” says Annabelle - we then hear a hand being slapped - “Yes, she’s given me a high five, such sweet hands.” says Annabelle excitedly.

The pencil is put down on the table - “Have you finished now?” I ask. “Yes.” says Millie. We put on the red light to find various shapes on the table, created from the play-doh by Millie - on one piece we see the word ‘James’ written in pencil - we now why she wanted the pencil. The pieces given to Annabelle and Anne were in fact, the cut-offs (waste). I take photos with my free hand of the table and its contents, then remove the play-doh for safe keeping - as the light goes off Millie unties the sitters.

Moments later we see the cutters being bunched together by Millie - suddenly they are up in the air and out of the circle behind Annabelle and Kath, then they are spinning round and round in the air near the back wall - creating a wonderful wheel of light as they do so. We wonder how Millie is spinning them round like this, then realize that Millie has tied them together with the string from the table, and is holding the string as she spins them.
Moments later I ask the sitters to listen, as I hear a strange sound - we then realize that the spinning cutters are going that fast they are creating a whooshing sound in the air as they spin - “It sounds like a wind storm.” say I. A few moments later the spinning stops and the cutters are seen to come back into the circle over Kath’s head and across to Annabelle.

I ask Annabelle if Millie has given her the cutters - Annabelle tells us that Millie is close to her and that she can feel Millie behind her pressing into her back - “She (Millie) is tying me up with the string, just like her sisters would do.” says Annabelle. Annabelle continues “Oh, I can feel her, she’s stroking my hair with her hands, can you hear her? She’s rubbing me everywhere. She’s holding my hand - now she’s pushing me, my goodness!” [laughter] “There’s someone at the table with the pencil.” says Doris. “Oh, I am so tied up.” says Annabelle. James then tells us that Millie has put the play-doh in his hands - “Do you want me to have it?” asks James. “Yes.” says Millie through the table.

Kath then asks “Can we put the light on to have a look (at Annabelle)?” “Yes.” says Millie through the table. We put on the light to find Annabelle all tied up and looking like Houdini doing one of his ‘All tied up rope tricks’ - laughter. The string is round her body, her neck, her shoulders and her wrists, and tied up in all this are the cutters.
Millie laughs through the table (shaking it from side to side) as we take photos with normal flash camera as well as the digi-camcorder snapshot in red light.
Annabelle cannot get over the feeling of having Millie touching her all over her body.

Millie then says “Jay (Spirit child who visited the circle last week) enjoyed it the other week.” through the table. “Is he here tonight?” asks Kath. “No.” says Millie. Millie then says “Mum, don’t worry.” “Thank you Millie.” says Annabelle.

As Millie leaves us, William (Alison’s Great Uncle in Spirit) comes to the table - “Good evening.” says Alison. “Paper.” says William when asked if he had anything to say. “To go with the pencil that is already on the table?” asks Kath. “Yes.” says William through the table.

The paper is placed on the table with the pencil, and as the light goes off we see the pencil being lifted up in the darkness - for the next minute we watch as the pencil glides across the paper - suddenly the pencil is laid flat on the table - “Are you done?” I ask. “Yes.” says William through the table. As I put on the red light to look at what William has written, Alison, with her head in her hands, starts to giggle - William had written Alison a personal message, and in this message he had used two images to make up a word which was so evidential for Alison - “You’ve no secrets.” says Anne. [laughter]

“That has got to beat the lot (for evidence).” says Kath. “Well done William.” say I. I ask William if I should move the paper away for safe keeping - William says ‘Yes’, but leave the pencil. “Have you more to come?” asks Alison. “Next time.” says William through the table.
William then lifts the pencil up into the air and begins to spin it round, making figure-of-eights in the air for us to see (with luminous tabs) - seconds later the pencil is back on the table. “Bless you.” says William through the table before he leaves us. “Bless you.” says Sitters - “Bye.” says William through the table.

As William leaves us, Freddie (Doris’s husband in Spirit) comes to the table. “As the pencil has been left on the table, do you want some paper?” asks Kath. “Yes.” says Freddie through the table.
I reach out behind me and bring in one more piece of A4 paper and place it on the table - we sit and watch as this time Freddie begins to write on the paper in the darkness. Over a minute later, Freddie places the pencil down on the table and we are allowed to put on the red light once again to see what he has written.
Again a beautiful personal message, this time for Doris, who understood what Freddie had written. “Thank you, I had a good Easter.” says Doris to Freddie.

As I move the pencil and paper away from the table, we hear Freddie tapping Doris’s hand - “Bye.” says Freddie through the table. Red Cloud comes back to the table, and says “Glad you had a good time, Amazing, Bless you.” through the table.
Doris asks Red Cloud a question regarding the energies - “Is it good to mix Young and Mature sitters?” “Yes it is - Excellent.” says Red Cloud through the table.

We all give thanks for a wonderful evening.

Doris closes the circle with another beautiful Prayer, giving thanks for the wonderful evidence of life eternal.

Terry Nelson.
