May 2012 saw the first sitting of a new mediumship development circle in Eastbourne, East Sussex.

We sit in Liz's fully blacked-out converted garage. I sit as the medium with Liz as sitter and we are sometimes joined by other guest sitters.

We treat each sitting as an experiment with no expectations from us and ask our Spirit Team to work with us in the most efficient way to produce evidential mediumship to help us understand ourselves and the bigger picture.

Each sitting is recorded, I transcribe the recording verbatim and include in the final report of the transcript any additional unrecorded experiences that Liz and myself remembered from the sitting.

I publish these reports to give people the opportunity to read or listen to the communications and hopefully increase their own understandings.

I welcome any comments or questions and my contact email is nickp7871@gmail.com

It's up to the reader to make up their own mind as to the source of the communications and phenomena reported and hopefully be inspired to set up a development circle to get their own experiences...

6th Sitting 02/07/2012


Monday 02/07/2012 saw our first sitting in ‘The Garage’

Liz has very kindly been having her garage converted into a dedicated séance room.
A wall has been put up just behind the up and over door and a new door has been fitted to allow access from the house to the garage. It’s now got a laminated floor, has been plastered inside and just needs painting which Liz will be doing this week with a nice shade of dark crimson on the walls.
An air vent has been put into the wall which is easy to cover with a bit of blackout material to keep the light out and two blankets draped over the door frame does the job there.

We had a third sitter with us this week… Dan, who used to sit with the original ‘Mercury Circle’ and also sat with me when we were both developing trance at my house just over a year ago.
We are now using a cabinet and for now will sit in dim red light. 

We put an upturned wicker basket over the red light to stop the bulb distracting Liz and Dan who sat in front of the closed cabinet and the trumpet was placed on the floor in front of them.

Just after we started they realised the wicker basket was not the best of ideas as it was reflecting patterns all-round the room making it difficult to see any phenomena. Next week we’ll be using a cardboard box as a shield!!!

Liz opened with a prayer and a dedication for the room to become a focus for the manifestation of spiritual energy to bring enlightenment and evidence to many of the reality of life in spirit.

We had the same music CD that we used last week.

After a couple of minutes Liz noticed what looked like black snow coming out the top of the trumpet.

A few voice noises and gurgles stared up in the cabinet. They said… ‘All of us here…’ Liz asked who was speaking but there was no reply to that, they seemed to be just practicing with the voice…


Liz and Dan sung along to the music and after about 15 minutes some more voices came through.
Liz reported the curtain moving…


After another 15 minutes a powerful voice came through. Liz had an itchy nose. Then more voices came through. It sounded like they were still experimenting to control the voice…


Ten minutes later there was some more voice experimenting. A few words are recognized. It sounds like ‘healer… he has door… he is our door keeper…’  Liz asked if one person could take the lead and not all come through at the same time but there was no reply to that…


Both Liz and Dan could feel energy being withdrawn from their hands.
Liz had a sweet earthy smell.
Liz felt something crawling up her right leg.

I felt myself come back during the last tune.
I had been very hot but was now starting to feel cold especially round the legs.

Liz closed.

We all had noisy rumbling stomachs towards the end.

Both Liz and Dan had felt they could have ‘gone off’ during the sitting and at times struggled to remain totally with it. Dan said that he daren’t close his eyes as he was sure he would have gone off!!!

To me in the cabinet the energies had felt very strong when the voices were coming through but the power didn’t seem to last long and it would go quite flat for a while before the energies built up again and more communicators came through. This is to be expected in a new venue and I feel that the energies will be building up now in the garage each time we sit.
