About 20 years ago I used to be a regular partaker of majick mushrooms....the little liberty cap variety.There wasn`t much else for we teenagers to do where I lived and my friends and I could often be found in a farmers field on windy autumnal afternoons looking for these little dizzy buggers.
One evening I was with this group of friends after such an afternoon and we had all had a cup of mushy tea and were sitting chatting and fooling around in front of a lovely log fire.
I was sitting directly in font of the fire in a big comfy armchair,staring into the flames and generally spacing out.when I suddenly started to pull out of my skin towards the fireplace.
I found myself zooming through the fire and up the chimney and out into the air above my friends house.
Strangely I didn`t feel at all uncomfortable about any of this and was just enjoying the experience.I could see the whole street below me and my friends cat Bartholemew was sitting washing on the wall outside the front door of the house.The next-door neighbours were watching telly in thier lounge with the cutains open,(I don`t know what they were watching I could only see the flickering of the screen)and there were cars coming and going as usual on the road.Generally everything looked completely normal,except that I was seeing it from somewhere above the house.
I then noticed some other friends walking towards the house and thought about going to try and talk to them but as soon as I tried I felt myself being pulled back towards the chimney,I zoomed back down it and back through the fire into my armchair and myself.
I opened my eyes to find my friends gathered around me looking scared and shaken.They were asking me if I was ok and all.I told them I was fine and they said I`d looked as though I had stopped breathing for a minute but my eyes had been open and I was just not responding to them in any way.
I was about to tell them what I`d just experienced and the front dorr bell rang.It was the two friends I`d seen approaching the house,and what`s more,Bartholomew strolled in behind them!
Are you thinking what I thought?Was this a real OBE?
By the way,I gave up mushrooming very soon afterwards,and wouldn`t really recomend it to anyone these days.Unless they absolutely wanted to.
