You might find this hard to believe, but I do have a dozen or so witnesses.

About 20 years ago, we were stopping (Camping) on a large, empty, and singularly uninteresting piece of land near Bedford. It was one of those huge tracts that just sits there waiting for someone to come along and build an industrial estate on it.

As I recall, it was the middle of summer, one of those days when it is so hot that you can see the heat haze shimmering, and it’s really quiet because even the birds and the bees have found a shady spot to lie down and put their feet up.

It was too hot to work, but obviously not too hot to shop because most of the women-folk had gathered up their children and headed into town, leaving group of men, myself included, to sit cross-legged on the dusty ground. We were idly chatting and smoking while trying to make the best use of a small rectangular shadow cast by a Bedford lorry.

One of the men was telling a us a story which, had it been a film, would probably have been rated at least PG. Suddenly he changed the subject mid-flow, and I looked up to see Mrs Red, (who thank God is not much into shopping) approaching us with a tray of tea. Just then, near her feet, a swirly breeze blew a little collection of dust, dry grass and other debris along the ground in a little whirlpool shape.

I’ve seen these before, many times. They usually last for a couple of seconds, travelling a few feet before disappearing. This one didn’t. It continued to grow, collecting more dust and detritus as it went. When it was about the size of a man, it went in to my caravan through the door (which Mrs Red had propped open) and came back out again a few seconds later carrying two cushions and a clock. Then, as if tired of it’s game, it just dropped everything in a neat pile and was gone, leaving us all slack jawed and stunned.

I swear this is true. The people who were there still talk about it to this very day.


Yeah, I've seen some funky stuff when I've been sitting around smoking with my mates as well.

Anyway, check this one out. Two days ago I woke up in the morning and immediately started singing the hymn Morning Has Broken. Why? I have abs no idea. It just came out loud and proud. Now the last time I sang that song was prob at school in assembly as I don't usually sing hymns and such. Just as I finished singing the clock radio kicked in blasting out the hymn Morning has Broken. Now let me tell you this wasn't radio 4 or anything like that it was either Heart or Galaxy. And I have never heard that hymn on the radio before in my life. Now I don't care about freaky winds or strange lights cos that was utterly crazy and I can't explain it. This kind of thing has happened to me before, and whilst it's amazing, I also find it the single most useless gift in the world. Oh and I also have a witness to this miracle as there was a woman in my bed.

you had me going right until the last line!
