			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My name is James and until recently a had a site of my own which I created because the last house I was in was extremely haunted and I took a number of unusual photos. My website was featured in the <a href="http://www.forteantimes.com/"  target="_blank">Forteam Times Magazine</a> which lead to The Discovery Channel wanting to come over although we decided against it at time because we didn’t want the associated stigma with it. Anyway times have moved on and I now have a young family and again the house I am in has had a fair but of activity in it.</p>
<p>I do not count myself as a medium, but purely someone who might be sensitive. I am 34 and a senior IT manager with a healthy level of scepticism. By being a member of BirminghamIU, I now have the opportunity to meet people who have experienced similar events and to channel what I have. I have been described as a radio on full blast and apparently I have to turn myself down.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>BirminghamIU have been investigating a private residence in Bartley Green, Birmingham for sometime now. For confidentially I can&#8217;t go too much into the full details of the case, but the owner of the property has now given us permission to publicise evidence. <span id="more-1116"></span></p>
<p>This short video shows an unexplained light anomaly caught while Gareth decided to hold a lone vigil in one of the bedrooms at the property which we suspect is paranormally active. There was no light sources on apart from the infra-red emitter from the camcorder itself which produces a wide beam that illuminates the whole of Gareth, producing nothing like the anomaly itself. The cause of the anomaly definitely goes down as unexplained and possibly paranormal in nature.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A few nights ago at the time of writing I was on the way to a paranormal investigation at St Michaels churchyard in the historic town of Cofton Hackett, just outside Birmingham in Worcestershire.<span id="more-1096"></span> The town is quite prestigious and is a therefore low crime area where we normally feel very comfortable indeed holding expensive equipment.</p>
<p>To get to the churchyard itself we normally walk across a public bridleway for about 10 minutes walk across the countryside. On starting the walk, Gareth, one of our psychic mediums explained how he was receiving some sort of psychic warning and felt very uncomfortable like we was in some sort of danger. After discussing his feelings, we decided as a team to continue, but by staying extra vigilant ensuring all our radios were on and ready. As we continued walking about 150 yards from the road at the start of the bridleway, we suddenly noticed a very bright light from behind. We turned around to see 2 cars had driven down the empty cul-de-sac leading to the bridleway and were attempting to drive as far as they could down the path until the bridleway was too narrow. The headlights from the cars was blinding. For about 2 seconds the nearest car dipped his headlights, but then put them back onto full beam after obviously spotting us a few seconds later. We all felt in danger and decided to walk back towards them and civilisation rather than to continue walking down the bridleway into the countryside, far away from any housing. As we walked closer the cars turned around and spun off away at high speed, like they really didn’t want us to catch their registration plates. We were left wandering if these vehicles were parked innocently or whether the occupants were up to something much more sinister.</p>
<p>Gareth believed from his physic warning that we’d just disturbed something quite sinister, like an exchange between vehicles at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac. He still felt very uneasy as if the warning wasn’t yet completely over, but after a discussion we decided to continue to our destination anyway staying even more vigilant. As we approached towards the end of the bridleway I saw a car in the distance going down the small country road past the church which was our destination. This road this normally so quiet it’s rare to even see a car as it ultimately leads to a farm and a dead end.</p>
<p>During the investigation in the churchyard, Gareth still felt very uneasy and we were all extra vigilant and uneasy. After about 20 minutes we all heard a car coming back down the road, possibly the same car I saw heading towards the farm earlier. We all stayed quiet and turned our lights out as a precaution and waited for the car to disappear into the distance. The engine revved and was quite distinctive from the vehicle, Gareth pointed out that the engine sounded exactly like one of the original cars that spun off earlier. After about 5 minutes we decided to head home and got out of the area without incident. Gareth felt that we may have disturbed a possible deal / exchange and the people were very annoyed, he went on later to explain that he felt one of the vehicles was looking for us. If this was true we was obviously in extreme danger, this can’t be proven 100%, but the psychic warning still wasn&#8217;t over yet.</p>
<p>During our journey back, Gareth still felt rather uneasy and thought that something was still wrong. We arrived home to see various fire engines and ambulance vehicles outside our home. One of the residents in our block left a candle burning in his flat which had knocked over starting a fire. We are acting fire marshalls for the building, but as we was out we weren’t able to respond. Luckily this fire was extinguished before it caused serious damage and more importantly, no-one was seriously hurt, but Gareth was then convinced that he felt very uneasy because of this and once the emergency services had dealt with the incident, Gareth was back to normal.</p>
<p>This is the 2nd time Gareth has had a suspected psychic warning at our property. A few months ago Gareth has a similar warning, feeling very uneasy and said that the emergency services will be here tonight. We all sat tight throughout the evening and late at night the fire alarm started. We responded as acting fire marshalls for the flats to find thick smoke on the 1st floor landing. We called the fire brigade and entered the property effected just in time to stop the resident from attempting to extinguish a cooking oil fire under the tap. If she had done this, it would have caused a flash over and anyone nearby including myself could have been killed or certainly seriously burnt.</p>
<p>In future when Gareth has a psychic warning we will treat it even more seriously.</p>
<p>So do you believe psychic warnings are genuine? If they are real, where does the information actually come from? Does it come from your inner self, spirits or somewhere else?</p>
<p>I leave you with a video featuring Gareth explaining what happened after his alleged psychic warning at Cofton Hackett:</p>

James, Gareth and Peter all experienced something that we believed was paranormal.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Watch an interesting photo video from one of our newest visited locations in the churchyard of the church of St Michael in Cofton Hackett just outside Birmingham in Worcestershire. <span id="more-1087"></span>What makes this location special is that it feels quite remote in the heart of the countryside, yet it&#8217;s only about half a mile from a nearby suburb. In fact we haven&#8217;t seen another soul throughout or around the location making it one of the safest outdoor locations. The only real annoyance is that a train line runs quite close with trains roughly every 15 minutes. The church and the nearby town has masses of history including activity during the English Civil War and references in The Doomsday Book itself. The church was built in the 14th century and is still in good condition today. We initially assessed the location, but we hope to return to perform a full paranormal investigation.</p>
