<\/p>\nShane MacGowan has been helping his widow from beyond the grave, she has revealed.<\/p>\n
Victoria Mary Clarke, 57, has \u201cmade contact\u201d with the Pogues frontman through the \u201cspirit world\u201d. She said: \u201cI am already in contact with Shane. He\u2019s already been helping with stuff, even in a very practical way.<\/p>\n
\u201cI feel like he\u2019s still here, especially when I\u2019m sitting in his chair or looking at his picture. I feel that he\u2019s communicating with me.<\/p>\n

"I can tell him stuff, and I can feel him watching me and being very much with me.\u201d Victoria married Shane in 2018 after nearly 40 years together.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
His death on November 30 sparked a huge outpouring of love for the hellraiser. Victoria recently found herself getting \u201cstressed\u201d while working on her range of silk scarves, so turned to her late hubby for help.<\/p>\n
The writer said: \u201cI had to do a lot of wrapping scarves, communicating with customers. \u201cAnd so I said to Shane \u2018Look, I\u2019m really stressed about this – I need your help.<\/p>\n

"I want you to make it go really smoothly\u2019.\u201c And it worked! I do believe that people can help you from beyond.\u201d<\/p>\n
Victoria was shocked by how much fun Shane\u2019s funeral was. She added: \u201cI\u2019ve never been to one like it.<\/p>\n
\u201cUsually they\u2019re downbeat. But there was so much joy, so much exuberance, and the love was so extreme that it kind of swamped any of the other stuff.<\/p>\n

\u201cShane loved getting high when he was alive. I think the ultimate high for him would have been to ascend, and meet Jesus, and really get off on that cosmic space.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat would have been the eternal buzz that he was always looking for in life. And he actually got it!\u201d<\/p>\n
