Listening

Tapescript 1.

[1.6]

J = Jane, S = Sally

J When I arrived I was shown into Sally’s office - which was much more normal than I'd expected. Sally looks like a kind and sincere woman. She says that she inherited from her grandmother the ability to “see” the past and future of other people. First she asked me a few basic questions - was I married, did I have children and so on. However, her next questions rather surprised me…

S Who's Caroline?

J I'm afraid I don't know. I don't know anybody called

Caroline. -.-. \-

S Well, somebody called Caroline is going to have a powerful and positive effect on your finances. Australia is very important in your life.

J Is it? I've never been to Australia.

S Well, you'll be going there very soon.

Tapescript 1.1

S Another place which is very important in your life is Ireland.

JYes, that's true. Ireland does play a big role in my life. In fact, I g.rew up there.

SIreland is a place where you will find answers to a lot of your problems. Look for the Irish connection. I am very optimistic that an Irish man is going to be “the one for you”.

JAh, very interesting! What does he look like?

S He's very tall.

J That's good - I'm 1 metre 90 myself.

SAnd he's highly intelligent; in feet it's his brain that will really attract you to him. He is a distinguished public figure – perhaps a professor?

J So when am I going to meet him?

S Actually, you already know him. It's just you don't think of him in that way.

JI immediately started thinking about all the people I know, but, to be honest, I couldn't think of anyone who fitted the description.

Tapescript 1.3

J I decided to ask Sally some questions myself. What about my health?

SLet’s see, your mother suffer from headaches, doesn't she?

I Yes she does, actually. She gets bad headaches.

S Well, you'll need to watch out for headaches, and so will your mother, because hers are going to get worse. But in general, you’re a healthy woman, and you'll have a long life without any major illnesses, but you must never be tempted to have plastic surgery - if you do, it will go horribly wrong.

J So far it had all been quite positive, but I wasn't really convinced. It was only when she started talking about my children that I really started listening.

S Your son Conor is very like you. He's good with language and he may end up working with words, maybe a poet or a songwriter.

J In fact he does like words arid writing, and last week he won a poetry prize at school.

S But your daughter Clara is more like your ex-husband. She's not good with words at all.

J It's true! They’re both dyslexic. This was beginning to make me wonder...
