Tarot reader knows woman's life is a mess because she's getting a tarot reading

A PROFESSIONAL tarot reader has a sixth sense that her client’s life is in disarray because she is putting her life choices in the hands of a stranger with a pack of cards.

Mystic Nikki Hollis shocked Fran Johnson by revealing, on no more than a turn of the nine of swords, that Fran is actually concealing terrible anxieties and fears which she thought were known only to her.

Fran said: “People say tarot is nonsense, but how else could Nikki have known I’m desperate and feel I have nowhere else to turn?

“She told me that I struggle to maintain romantic relationships – true – that I haven’t been able to hold down a proper job – true – and that I often turn to drink when I’ve had a bad day. And I’m so good at concealing that, especially from my dates.

“My cards were the ten of wands, the five of pentacles and the empress, which together reveal that to find true happiness I need to stop f**king men from the apps, quit weekday wine and start taking care of myself, both mentally and physically.

“Now tell me how else would she have known that? She couldn’t possibly have. Also somehow the cards were able to intuit that I, a 32-year-old woman, secretly yearned for a mortgage and a baby.”

Hollis said: “The cards are such an incredible divination tool. Amazing how frequently they divine that getting smashed on white wine spritzers and going on 2am Vinted sprees isn’t a viable future.”

We ask you: What did Andy Burnham do in your sexy dream about him?

ANDY Burnham is our new prime minister, sort of, and Britain is so entranced by him he is already appearing cock out in our dreams. What did he do in yours? 

Margaret Gerving, retired: “Nationalised Thames Water then spunked in it.”

Emma Bradford, carpet fitter: “Gave me a proper, no-nonsense, Northern seeing-to. But then afterwards when he took off his glasses his nose came off with them.”

Thom Logan, vehicle restorer: “Slowly undressed me while whispering filthily about relaxing fiscal constraints and excluding defence spending from the debt brake, freeing borrowing to modernise the armed forces. Same as every other Grindr f**kboi.”

Helen Archer, phlebotomist: “Burnham, Farage, Ed Davey; it doesn’t matter who’s in my wet dreams, I can’t recognise them under the clown make-up.”

James Bates, Vinted reseller: “Nice change to have a Northern voice providing constant, withering critique of how badly I’m banging Holly Willoughby. With Starmer it was like I was being belittled by a robot.”
