Focusing my powers away from divination feels cleansing at the moment. To thank Hatty for her gift, I decided to see if I could make the chores around the house a bit easier. I thought it would be good if I could make the hamper lighter to make picnics easier, and I realised that there… Continue reading

Something strange happened the other day… Although I didn’t find it strange so much as surprising! I found an injured sparrow on the side of the road, and when I reached down to check on the poor thing, it looked up at me and said, “Help”. In English. Out loud. The sparrow then passed out… Continue reading

I was in two minds about doing any more fortune telling sessions at Coastal Coffee – then I went today and that just about made up my mind. I still had a few customers, but there was also a lot of distractions. One of the women who I used to do readings for, who apparently… Continue reading

Thank you so much for the “magic candy”! I was still a bit confused after reading the description but I’m glad it reminded me about Shimmers because Bea came into the coffee shop during my shift yesterday and we got chatting. She got a bit excited about the beads even though she’d not heard of… Continue reading

I’m in hot water with Aunty Ermingarde. I don’t mind, really. I went over for tea and I was telling her about going off fortune telling and she took it really personally, shouting about my lying to the town (is it my fault they won’t pay me if I tell the truth?!) and then she… Continue reading

Dear Lucy, My dear, dear child. It’s so soon since I last wrote to you, but I was really quite moved by your description of trying to find clarity, pleading with the moon and stars! It does not sound silly. But I do feel for you, pleading out for an answer, receiving only silence in… Continue reading

Your package couldn’t have arrived at a better time. I was in a very low mood following Mrs Webfoot’s anger, and the next day Mrs Edgwood came around and they gossiped about me rather loudly, and Mrs Edgwood told me that Suniya had gone home in tears. I tried to phone her but she didn’t… Continue reading

Last night I couldn’t sleep and I got up and wandered about. Firenze stirred for a moment, looked at me curiously, stared at me with an almost impertinent pointedness, and then pulled a leaf of sage off the plant and disappeared. I took this to mean that he must have understood our conversation. I wondered… Continue reading

Well, the vegetable garden did not exactly go as planned! The trouble is, I can hear the plants and… well, some weren’t happy and some were very eager to please. Maybe the problem was that I was really keen to impress Suniya. She was worried about watering seedlings for so long and though I can’t… Continue reading

Olive Framley Entry 7, 9th May.
Firenze has given me a shock. I knew we had a bond and I thought it was surprising when I had a future flash, but I have discovered that I vastly underestimated him. This morning I went down his enclosure and he was gone. I was frantic and I called Hatty, who denied having seen… Continue reading
