Readers' Stories New Age Tiscali

Many years ago, I was living in a house share with friends. One weekend, all the others except a girl called Leslie went away and left the two of us in the house. We had all been to a party the night before so we were now feeling quite tired.

Thoroughly bored of the TV, we decided to bleach and tie dye a load of our old clothes. I had an old denim jaket and thought it would be cool to tie it into knots and dunk it in bleach (we were very 'studenty', I must explain at this stage).

After doing so, we rinsed all the clothes and hung them over the radiators to dry. There was no space left for my denim jacket so I hung it over the kitchen window to dry out. We sat in the kitchen chatting away and having a laugh and then the sun suddenly energed from a cloudy sky and illuminated the window where the jacket was hung.

We both looked and on the back of the jacket was the perfect symmetrical portrait of Jesus Christ, beard and everything. We couldn't believe it. Once it had dried we attempted to get the image back by wetting it, but alas no. He was never to be seen again.

You may be asking why everyone had gone away for the weekend. It was Good Friday.
