I get this feeling but only when I'm really upset about something. When I was six my mum was planning on taking me to meet my gran for the first time. About a month before we were due to fly, my mum got word that my gran (her mum) had died. The trip was bought forward and on the morning of the funeral, I went from playing with my cousins to crying uncontrollably for hours. I cried the whole way through the service and slept the rest of the day. For years after my mum would tell me she dreamt about me with my gran, me as a baby with my gran watching over my cot. So now when I'm feeling low and I get that feeling of a shiver (without the shake), I like to think that it's my gran's there comforting me.


Weirdly, my little one once told me that as she passed my bedroom door, she saw an old lady standing over me watching me sleep!

I wish the bloody living would leave me alone when I'm, er, communing with nature. One imagines that a guardian angel might at least have the decency to turn its back, and certainly not bounce up and down and ask to sit on one's lap and enquire exactly what one might be doing.

    • Yes, it would be great to see them nationalised. Along with the other water companies they seem to have a great business model: -submit a 5 year plan to the regulator asking for yearly price increases to cover the cost of improving the infrastructure and get them to approve it - carry on paying handsome dividends to shareholders and eye watering salaries to senior executives  - fail to achieve the infrastructure targets at the end of the five years, make some excuses and draw up the next plan Magic!     
    • Avoid KFH. Agree with other comments that it is best to talk to lots of people.  Also, (not particularly related to the above agent), I wish I had read the reviews a lot more, rather than relying on numbers.  Depending on whether you are renting, letting, selling or buying the reviews often differ a lot depending on the relationship you have with the agent and it is worth checking whether the good/bad reviews match your situation.  
    • How about a thick cork mat?
