Colin Fry Has Terminal Lung Cancer
UPDATE 25/08/15
Colin Fry has died - Read more at http://www.badpsychics.com/2015/08/colin-fry-dead.html
UPDATE 22/04/15:
I spoke directly to Colin Fry whereby I put a lot of the points I made below to him straight, I spoke in depth with him. I am getting a lot of abuse for what I have wrote below, which is to be expected, however I want to quote Colin directly.
"I have no fear of death what so ever" - Colin Fry
He said that directly to me, he does not consider himself to be dying in the same way perhaps I would. Therefore although my comments below seem harsh, if you are a true believer/spiritualist, then you should have no problem with discussing death, or taking peoples opinions about what you should do before you die, however harsh they may sound. I would never say anything unless I was prepared to say them directly to Colin, which I did. So the more abuse you send me, the more you prove that deep down you do not truly believe. I stand by everything I say below, and if you don't agree, there are two things you can do about. 1. Nothing - 2. Like it. - Jon Donnis
On Colin Frys website, earlier today a post was made revealing that Colin has been diagnosed with Terminal Lung Cancer.
He has also revealed he will continue touring as "the show must go on".
I have emailed Colin personally but I also wanted to say a few things in public as well.
Over the years I have exposed Colin Fry as a fraud, I have dissected his readings, exposed his stage shows, dug up old stories of him getting caught cheating in a seance. You name it I have done it.
I exposed Colin as it was the right thing to do since he was in my opinion doing a bad thing and I wanted as many people to know the truth as could tell.
However cancer is a terrible disease, I have lost many close relatives to this disease, so I know first hand how horrible it can be.
But one thing in Colins statement really disappointed me, the whole "the show must go on" thing.
Colin you have time to make things right, you have time to clear your conscience, to die a honest man. Mortality is man's greatest fear, but it can also bring out the strength in us all.
It wasn't spirit that told you you had cancer, it was doctors. It isn't Reiki or spiritual healing that will help you deal with the pain, or help you live that little bit longer, it's science. Medicine will take away the pain and help you cope.
If you do not come clean now, while you can, then your name will forever be sullied and used by others. Every fake psychic Tom, Dick and Harry will claim to be in contact with you, and claim to pass on your message, and you know it will all be a lie.
Whether you have true faith in an afterlife or not, doesn't matter, what does matter is dying with dignity, and allowing those around you to get away from this disgusting business of spiritualism.
I want you to fight every day Colin, fight to live longer, but fight for right, fight for honesty, speak out against those you know are frauds, hell what can they do? NOTHING.
You truly have nothing to lose now, and everything to gain.
Don't die a villain, Die reformed, Die honest. There's still time.
Tell the truth die a hero.
Jon Donnis

Review: Psychic Sally Morgan failed to see my disappointment
The following review was put up on "The Star" website and I thought I would share it hear as it amused me.
Was you at this show? Did you hear what the woman said when she came back from the toilets?
---
The Psychic Sally on the Road 2015 tour visited Doncaster - and turned into a bit of a car crash.
When I heard Sally Morgan was coming to the Doncaster Dome, I was very excited.
Having seen her at the same venue a few years ago, she had not just been entertaining but also very accurate, so it surely promised to be a great night out.
While helpful staff showed us to our seats, I looked around the venue and it was obvious that many people were looking forward to the night’s event.
Sitting back, I took a minute to soak in the atmosphere, a mixture of excitement, expectation, and hope.
Sally took to the stage and explained a little about what she did and then began by giving a name of a person in spirit.
People were looking around wondering who the fortunate person was, but it seemed no one knew the spirit who had come to say hello.
This seemed to be the mantra of most of the evening. Many names, dates and other details were given, but for the most part, things were not very accurate.
I wondered if mediums have off nights, because Sally Morgan was definitely having one tonight.
It was the total opposite from the last time I saw her.
The highlight of the evening came from a young woman in the audience who had her “message of love” picked out while she had decided to go to powder her nose. She returned to her seat to rapturous applause.
She told Sally that while in the ladies, as she looked into the mirror, she thought about her granddad who had passed away and what a lot of rubbish (not quite the words she used) this was.
It certainly made everyone laugh, but was it her granddad giving her a sign or was it just coincidence?
One thing I am sure of however is that I was not the only person going home somewhat disappointed.
