    if any of my answers are related to someone who is deceased, could you let me know. (or if peter is significant, brother maybe?)

    steven..what were you doing between the hours of 7.15 and 12.mn last night?


  • Subscribers Posts: 19,425 ✭✭✭✭Oryx


    solas, doing very well! 3 right. Grandma is deceased, and peter is my bro in law. Impressive!

    stevenmu none right so far, but concentrate and try again! :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,999 ✭✭✭solas

    It wasn't me, I swear !


    Not much really, had some dinner, watched some tv, messed around with the computer for a while, oh and I had my first creme egg of the season aswell. That was about it, why, what were you thinking off ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,999 ✭✭✭solas


    :)
    was doing my best to not think at all.

    will leave this thread O/T

    Not in the latter years, but smoked heavily until she was about seventy. Will check out the peter name, not aware myself of a connection. She had one very distinctive thing I always recall about her....thinking of it now.... man if you knew that id fall over :D


  • Subscribers Posts: 19,425 ✭✭✭✭Oryx


    <o/t>All this talk of creme eggs is making me twitch. For the love of god, stop! :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,999 ✭✭✭solas


    mmmm..chocolate.

    your granma is a lively one. I'm hoping she is Irish.
    As for her peculiarites y'never know they might pop up at some stage. Hoping it's not a fetish of any kind :)
    or anything to do with drugs..although if she's Irish I would put it past her to drink a pint of guiness backwards out of a glass while singing the fields of athenry and dancing on the tables.
    Did she do strange things with her teeth?
    was she on the late late show?
    did she fancy the pants off Daniel O Donnell?

    lol..just rambling now.
    Grans are great though.
    <want to leave this thread get back on topic, interested in seeing how it develops>

    er, no, no, and no, but maybe she had a secret life she didnt tell us about. :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,999 ✭✭✭solas


    she's not Irish?
    ...wouldn't like to think of half the things grandmas get up to tbh...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43,045 ✭✭✭✭Nevyn


    did she have a glass eye ?

    She smelled of cabbage???? :D


  • Subscribers Posts: 19,425 ✭✭✭✭Oryx


    Irish born and reared. Interesting aside to thread anyway. No glass eye either, actually its much simpler than that.

    As shes now being compared to cabbage, can we get back on topic?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,999 ✭✭✭solas


    a mole?

    or was she psychic and used to read the tea leaves or something like that?


  • Subscribers Posts: 19,425 ✭✭✭✭Oryx

    Nope, sorry.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,999 ✭✭✭solas


    uh..I know I know..she smoked a pipe

    ok..I'm all guessed out.


  • Subscribers Posts: 19,425 ✭✭✭✭Oryx


    No worries solas, you said your better when you dont try. Chill and stop trying :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,999 ✭✭✭solas


    I'm going to have to stop now, I have images of some old biddy smoking a pipe and drinking guinness, while popping her eyes out to see the mole on her chin better.

    must do some work around here today. Later.

    First detailed spirit contact I ever had. Started me on this wild and crazy journey, and helped me reconcile a few problems I was having, to boot. So life changing stuff. I think its ironic you should come up with the name. :p

    You see, I am an incredibly potent psychic. All of this has simply been a test, one where I challenge you, to see if your belief in yourself falters. You seem to have passed. Now I can lead you down the path to Ascension... :P

    On a more serious note, the fact that I came up with Rose isn't all that impressive. We've had lots of people throwing out lots of names. It's not strange that we're going to get some answers that seem to be relevant, it's sheer probability.


  • Subscribers Posts: 19,425 ✭✭✭✭Oryx


    Whatever you say.... :D Probability could have had you throw out any of 200 other common names but you chose that one. Made me smile!

    I'm thinking Christmas time, or maybe something a bit more sunny.


    Disclaimer: I am not psychic. I am using statisical likelyhoods. Consider this something of a "control" in this experiment.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,999 ✭✭✭solas


    ya got one right..interesting statistical analysis though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,633 ✭✭✭stormkeeper


    I'll do this for a laugh, to see what happens, not really expecting to get anything right....

    KatieK wrote:
    Whats my...
    Eye colour - Green, I think
    Favorite food - Hmm... Something you don't have very often, even though it's a normal/traditional food? I can't think of anything...
    Maiden grandmas name - I can only think of O'Leary... The other surname popping into my head is a musician of sorts, which is Abbott, lol
    How many brothers do I have - One
    How many sisters - Two
    What month was I born - I'm getting June or July

    As I said before, I don't expect to get these right, they were more thought-out guesses, if anything...

    Edit:

    I picked up green, and that you also have dark hair? I also picked up the Irish connection, due to the name O'Leary, lol... I misunderstood the question.

    I'm gonna try the next one, though yet again, I'm going to assume I won't get any right, lol


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,999 ✭✭✭solas


    ah...I'll give you half a point. :)
