Did you know that there was such a thing as the Crawley Paranormal Investigators?

    “Using a combination of gifted Mediums, scientific equipment and the all-important sceptic we aim to find solutions to any situation that we are put in. We always aim to find a logical and natural explanation to any activity that has been reported and if we draw a blank we look at the possibilities of genuine paranormal activity.”

    There’s always a statement like this, and I never know what it means. How can paranormal not be ‘natural’? How can you investigate something that has no logical basis?

    I know. They were advertising a job in the local paper earlier this year. I would have been tempted if I was not already employed.

    Would love to have a business card with the job title “All-Important Sceptic”

    Right now our local papers are full of UFO sightings. (I know… we have Gatwick Airport in the borough boundaries… wonder what those lights in the sky could be?) A follow-up letter this week was from someone who said they had a party last week and fired off a bunch of sky candles, offering that as another possibility.

    Maybe the Crawley Ghostbusters should diversify?

    Advertising job’s???

    That’s news to me and I run the group!

  • Skuds

    I must be mistaken then. Either it was another similar business (although having even one is unlikely enough!) or just something else a bit exciting – like a detective agency perhaps. Or maybe it was something in Brighton…

    But I don’t discount paranormal activity causing a job advert to appear ;)

    Talking of good job-titles I was shown a book today and the author was listed as a freelance lexicographer.
