‘I wandered into the hills from the place we were staying. I came across a large clearing with an abandoned collapsed building. I heard laughing and singing and then what I thought was a young girl came out from behind the building. She was a little shorter than me, had pale skin and long blonde or white hair. I stayed and played with her for a long time – we didn’t talk – I think it was telepathic? I could hear a lot of others behind the building but I was told I couldn’t go to – I felt a sense of danger. I went back every day that we stayed in the area – about two weeks and I played, sang and laughed with her. On one journey back down the mountain at the end of the day I got stuck in sinking sand. Things went blurry and I believe they pulled me out of the bog.’ ‘Music’. Why fairies? ‘I don’t know – they were there – I was there in the same place, they didn’t feel threatened by me.’ Fairies are ‘other dimensional or intradimensional beings’.
