Another one I've heard people fall for is the "you're going to go on a nice holiday" routine. So the punter goes on a holiday and has a nice time. Therefore the guy/gal is a genuine psychic.
There are so many subjects which can be suggested as either happening in the future, or happened in the past and open to interpretation. To the extent that, if we go back to our Psycic Medium for one last time, even these mundane examples would be sufficient:
PM=Psychic Medium
AM=Audience Member
PM: She's showing me the image of a bridge and says you will understand.
AM: A bridge... Oh yes! We had to cross a motorway bridge every time we went to see my brother.
PM: Do you still visit him?
AM: Yes (so, he's alive)
PM: Well you can tell him mum passes on her love and... are there grandchildren?
AM: Yes, two boys...
PM: She's smiling and you are being told mum is always watching over them.
AM: I have a son and two daughters.
PM: I was just coming to that! Mum can only get messages through one at a time.
She's with them. She's wants you to know that. You will see little signs, maybe things going missing for no reason and them turn up unexpectedly.
AM: Yes, Yes, it happens all the time!
PM: That's her way of letting you know and it will keep occurring, so don't worry.
There's an image of something small and round, she's trying to show me.
AM: I can't think what that could be.
She's holding it in her open hands...
AM: An onion?
PM: She's smiling.
AM: Oh my goodness, yes, we would sometimes cook together.
PM: And a fruit, she's now holding a fruit.
AM: Is it a banana?
PM: Yes, yes it is.
AM: That was mum's favourite and she would make a banana cake.
PM: Mum's leaving us now, so she wants to say goodbye and you have to keep looking out for signs of her presence.
She says... one last thing... and I'm just trying to get the message through...
Have you had any recent incidents where something suddenly happened, like a house appliances failure, or...
AM: Yes!! The hall lightbulb blew last week!
PM: That's mum, she says.
Mum's left us now and to my right there's someone who has only recently lost a loved one...
When I say recently, it might be within the last year...
Or couple of years...
AM: Auntie Doris died 4 years ago and I wondered if she might come through tonight...
PM: So, you were thinking about her recently, I see, now it's clear, that's what she's trying to tell me.
She's showing me pain in the chest area, does that make sense...
AM: She fell and banged her head.
I understand now, that's why she's touching her head. Doris says she was pointing to a broken heart, because she passed too early.
Tell me about the river... and there's something about a holiday...
