Countries I would like to visit

I’ll just stick with my top 10 for now…
1) Chile (just want to go)
2) New Zealand
3) Namibia
4) Italy (I just love what I have seen so far)
5) Botswana
6) Canada
7) Australia (I’ve only seen one tiny corner) Iceland
9) Japan
10) Peru
This could change at any point and there are loads of places that should be in [...]



My changing world

The world I wrote about just yesterday has changed. It’s not a huge shock but it is different. Sure the same colour, the same make, the same basic model, but in fact it was great to drive, I think I’m going to like my new world.



My own world

While I am in my car I have freedom. Not just the freedom to travel where I wish (unless it is time to go to work), but also other freedoms. In my car I can talk about anything, at any volume, making as much or as little sense as I wish. I can laugh at [...]



Some great answers

- discrimination is when someone makes an illegal copy of the Bible
- prejudice = if you’ve never had grapes before and you say you don’t like them
- stereotyping = expecting a superhero to be strong and brave
I don’t think anyone really knows if God designed the world or not as it hasn’t been properly announced.



I miss my cat

At the moment I have a cat lying on my rug who is very black with very pink tips. She’s cute but it’s not quite the same as having my real cat around to drop fur around and leave a general mess everywhere.
I have left her with my parents until after half term because then [...]



Time to move on

I have finally given notice that I won’t be running the music group at church. I am carrying on until May, by which stage it will be 5 years, which is enough for me I think. I had planned on leaving a year or so ago but at that time the other person who was [...]



Car change

Same make, same colour but a handy device that means I won’t leave the passenger door unlocked for days on end, along with quick defrosting of windscreen in weather like we had today.



Practice Cancelled

I wasn’t at my church this morning but was due to lead a rehearsal tomorrow. I feel secretly pleased that in my absence they cancelled (literally no-one is around next Sunday). An evening unexpected evening off – hurrah!
Now all I need is really heavy snow so I don’t have to go to work in the [...]



Non nobis domine

non nobis, sed nomini tuo da gloriam, sed nomine tuo da gloriam etc
Well, it’s going through my head, perhaps I can make it go through yours? I do find it strange that having sung a variety of songs this evening, it is one in the middle of the proceedings which is still with me. It [...]



Excellent badminton

Not that I was excellent (though I did have my moments!) it’s very satisfying coming away feeling that we all played really hard. One of the players is very viscious, perhaps she sees it as therapy.
I must go to the gym tomorrow, I have been quite good with my resolution to get my money’s worth [...]
