Psychic Predictions

My view of London from my hotel  


My partner has always told me not to follow my nose as it will invariably get me into trouble. Unfortunately, he's usually right. I arrived in London yesterday morning on a work trip and was wondering around looking for something to eat and glanced over at this sign: "Spiritualist Association of Great Britain - Come In!" Of course I went in and ended up making an appointment with a psychic/ medium. I figured this would be a great time to learn about my future - India, babies etc. - or at least have a little fun. All I really wanted to hear was... "I see a beautiful, healthy baby in your future" or "you're going to have twins" or something like "you will have the first baby born to a surrogate to become President of the United States." Basically, all he told me was to be very, very careful in India and make sure to get my inoculations. He also foresaw gastrointestinal problems in my future. Did I just pay this guy £35 to tell me I'm going to get diarrhea in India? Oh well... so much for that.


On my way back to the hotel, I stopped at Harrods to look at baby things. This store always amazes me. I found the perfect stroller.  This is what I've been looking for! As I was wondering how I could possibly get this on the airplane, I saw the price - about the same as a small Toyota. I suppose my future baby will have to make do with much, much less.
Getting close now... only 11 days until India!

  1. Nice stroller - you have excellent taste! Does it come with a Mary Poppins to care for the wee babe? Have a safe and successful trip to India and don't pay any attention to the "psychic". I foresee a stork in your future maybe even two ;-)

  3. What a gorgeous pram/stroller! Maybe some nice uncle, auntie, god father or god mother might buy you said pram???? Very disappointing about the psychic but I know what you mean I have been itching to get a reading but have been too busy. See you soon and safe travels

  4. I say no readings until you're pregnant! :-) And funny the New Year Dreaming said that someone may buy your stroller...because we were lucky enough to have someone buy ours. And while is wasn't the price of a car we were still struggling to think how we were going to afford the most expensive gift on our registry. GOOD LUCK IN INDIA...I have a good feeling. Take care.
