I thought that this article would be longer than this! Saccerzd 16:56, 7 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well I hardly doubt she has a huge cult following. 82.69.80.20

I'm surprised she doesn't to be honest, there are people less deserving (I know hard to imagine but it's true). --Hellahulla 16:09, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes But she was quit famous during her lottery days Andrewjd 07:25, 27 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm surprised this has a {{notability}} tag on it. Mystic Meg is almost notable enough to be in a dictionary. --Montchav (talk) 14:19, 3 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

+++++ Just for the record there is no such word as 'astrologist' I have changed it to the correct word= astrologer. best wishes Veryscarymary (talk) 19:32, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Personal life?

Any details of husband or family life? 86.147.127.190 (talk) 17:37, 16 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

She died with 7 cats. I think you can draw your own conclusions. 2604:2D80:6305:600:50AF:3D83:76E8:195E (talk) 12:25, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lake never married, not even one of that cats it seems, as confirmed here. That may be a useful source in itself. Martinevans123 (talk) 12:49, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Retired? Or is she appearing somewhere else now?

Frank Pilkington has just replaced her as The Sun's astrologer. Has she retired or defected to another paper? Digifiend (talk) 15:06, 3 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The Sun

Would be interesting to find out why The Sun ended her contract? She has been writing for that paper for at least 20 years... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.41.255.118 (talk) 11:07, 10 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Considering her age (she's in her 70s), maybe she just retired. By choice. We don't know that The Sun wanted to get rid of her. Hence my above question. Digifiend (talk) 02:11, 13 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Place of birth - source

A FreeBMD search reveals: this, which is consistent with a birth in Accrington: [1]. Martinevans123 (talk) 11:37, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
