Oh dear!! I believe Venice has it's fair share of pigeons.   Hypnotherapy is really good, I was hypnotised for longhaul flights but not Easy Jet so I need to go back for that!!   You need a hypnotherapist who practices the modern way,  it should only take a few sessions if they are good.

Thanks.  I will look in to that.

My daughter is quite tough in other ways - she'll pick up a spider to remove it whilst I'm squealing!

Phobias are so strange don't you think?

Yes, it's a fear which for some reason we put onto something else which then becomes a phobia, although the original fear doesn't necessarily have anything to connect it to the phobia.  If you see what I mean.....I think

Sounds like a good book, strange that you are reading that actually because I am currently reading Patricia Cornwells "Portrait of a Killer" Jack the Ripper - I love the Ripper case, very fascinating. I did a tour of the crime scenes at midnight on halloween many years ago, creepy stuff!

I love to relax on Sundays yeah but also have to have a Sunday roast! 

I'm fascinated by the Ripper case too and currently reading 'The crimes of Jack the Ripper' by Paul Roland, which gives a fascinating insight.

Have you ever read the Ripper Diaries? A book about some diaries written by a fellow named James maybrick.

Not read them no. Personally I think 'Jack the Ripper' didn't exist and was created as a media phenomenom. This may be a blunt perspective but it sells far more papers, when you have 1 man terrorising the streets of London, than numerous isolated murders.

My personal opinion is that both forensic science and police intelligence regarding modus operandi were not advanced enough in the 19th century to categorically say with absolute certainty that the same man committed all the murders. I personally believe that they were committed by a number of separate individuals.

Interesting point.

What is it about the dates patti thats so significant?

Nichols' body was discovered at about 3:40 a.m. on Friday 31 August 1888 in Buck's Row (now Durward Street)

Chapman's body was discovered at about 6 a.m. on Saturday 8 September 1888 near a doorway in the back yard of 29 Hanbury Street

Stride and Eddowes were killed in the early morning of Sunday 30 September 1888.

Kelly's gruesomely mutilated body was discovered lying on the bed in the single room where she lived at 13 Miller's Court,[8] off Dorset Street, Spitalfields, at 10:45 a.m. on Friday 9 November 1888.


Im sure Mitre Sq is the only crime scene that was as it was at the time of the murders, many of the crime scenes have been built over and have nothing to even identify them as such, thats the main reason why I have never bothered taking one of these tours.

31st Aug 1888 was 3rd quarter moon
8th Sept 1888 was a new moon
30th Sept was was a 3rd quarter moon
9th nov 1888 was a new moon
Is this the pattern?

Hi Gordo

Yes, I do mean that. Note the last day of each month and the 8th and 9th at the beginning of each month....What is also significant is that they all died within 2 weeks of their birthday....

Hi Patti. My throat is dry through lack of on line conversation

Hi April, my throat was dry earlier, but now had a drink, so back on form...lol

What would you like to talk about??? It's all doom and gloom...

Did you hear about the young girl that was left all alone on a boat in Norfolk? They found her parents dead....How awful it that....

It reminded me of the Natalie Wood story.......There has and always will be speculation about her death...

[Jane]
