‘Like a tiny person. A red cap, red jacket, green leggings.’ ‘I was a child I just accepted it as a fairy. Certainly not a ghost or demon if that is what you are implying. It was a fairy that as a child I believed in.’ ‘I would have to repeat the experience as an adult to totally believe in fairies. But I am willing to concede that people do see these creatures.’
