The Aliens are here

As many know I travelled for a couple of decades, mostly around Europe, and did a fair share of hitch hiking.

One morning in the south of France, I decided to give this thought contact a go, it isn't a new idea, this would be somewhere in the mid eighties.

I sat down in some fairly high grass and lazily wafted my thumb in the air, thinking of making contact, and not thinking anything much would happen.

A car stopped, hey, woopee .. I got in and can't remember where I said I was going, but we went.

No conversation that I can remember in the car, but when I got out, shutting the door saying thanks, the guy said in English,

"We'll see each other again, we're waiting for you John" ...

that must have freaked you out!

I was once stopped in the street by some guy saying pretty much the same thing - it turned out he was an undercover cop though... haha

[Brown Sauce]

It did, but the guy was so nice that it could've been loads worse. It was very strange, and in the beginning I was too shocked I suppose for anything much to go in, 'twas only later that it sunk in.

I also worked constructing Disneyland Paris, with a bunch of folk from Eire. Fantastic fun. Later went to Gibralter for the winter, and was told all about it, who I was, who I worked with blahdeblah, by some suited chap in the Canon bar there. That freaked me out more.

If I tell you that we all got paid in a huge Irish pub in the north of London, and not over a few pints, but in a backroom, down a corridor, where there was LOADS of money passing hands, and getting 5% or so being taken off for some reason, roses? , maybe that ain't so freaky either. Murder on the Rock ?

I could have told them years ago that they had arrived. Theres one been living next door to me for years!

I think I may have married one. That would explain a lot.

Piss-take aside, this kind of thing really intrigues me. I think there is a whole hell of a lot going on that some people think we should not know.

I had a very strange experience when I was about 11. One night, maybe about 3 am, something definitely walked up the stairs and pushed open my bedroom door. I thought it was my Dad playing tricks. After crapping myself for a long time, I finally summoned up the courage to run over to my parent's bedroom. Both were fast asleep and next morning they said that it wasn't them. The next night all the posters were off my walls and the day after there was a loud sound of shattering glass in our cellar which my mother & cousin also heard, but nothing was untoward down there when my Dad came home and took a very frightened mother & son down into the basement with a torch. Might have been "ghosts", "aliens" or whatever. Very spook shit none the less. I'm now 30 years on from it, but it stays with me.

I also liked Richard Dreyfuss making a model of Devil's Tower in his living room in the cut of Close Encounters that I haven't seen for about 30 years (only the crappy "other" or "Director's" cut). Aliens, again, is clearly the only explanation. Maybe making a model out of crap in your living room is the key to contact.


BTW - Anyone seen "The Fourth Kind" yet? Any good? I'm really looking forward to that, and it will no doubt induce sleepless nights for me, just like reading Communion and etc by Whitley Streiber did...
