Went to Home League this afternoon and, although I prepared the programme - Joyce very kindly read the readings and lead the afternoon. Thank you Joyce.
So back …
For Christmas I asked 'Santa' or 'Nigel' for a goldfish tank and fish. It's not a sudden whim but I have been thinking about it for a few months but whilst I was still in the thinking stage John and Marta bought theirs!! and that has spurred me on. So last evening, after finishing the weekly shop,…

Whilst browsing a blogger friend's sites - Simply4God - I came across this poem and thought it intriguing...
Our Deepest Fear
by Marianne Williamson
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most f…
The 16ft Christmas Tree arrived yesterday at The Salvation Army and the 'Christmas Decor' team are down there this morning in full swing. Nigel has made his way down to show an interest and to be in time for the fish n'chip lunch the highlight of the day :)
From now until Christmas day it's go, …
These photographs were taken in our favourite location - Watersmeet, which is just outside of Lynton and Lymouth.
Nigel & Karl have for the last couple of years disappeared for a few days walking trip. This year they went down to Devon and visited Watersmeet, Lynton & Lymouth but the hightlight …
I've not been feeling a 100% over the last few weeks with a cold, cough and just general tiredness but like everyone else (so many people down with the same symptoms) I've just kept going and have covered all the engagements that have been in my diary. Yesterday, thought, left me feeling the weake…
I read this as part of my devotions this morning (Daily Bread www.dailybread.org.uk) and found it most helpful and challenging so would very much like to share it with you.
Bible Reading: Acts 13:1-12
A missionary life - where to begin?
A missionary community (vs1-5). These verses show that this '…
As I have mentioned in previous blogs I am not 'girly' so don't ever ask me to accompany you to a make up, jewellery or fashion party or event!! My mother always says she felt as though she had three boys in the house and in return I've always said that I thank the Lord that he gave me a son cos I …
I am part of the ECCIC team - Essex Churches Council for Industry and Commerce www.eccic.org.uk - and we meet up once a month for a team meeting or, like today, to visit another Chaplain's area. Today we visited Holland Park Tractors in Basildon where Revd Ian Swift visits once a week as Chaplain…
Doris, aged 93, and May, aged 90, are having to leave their residential home where they have lived for the past 15 years. Cloud house is a 12 bedroom home without en-suite facilities and under the current law all residents must have en-suite so Doris and May find themselves in the process of moving…

Having just read a friends Fun Monday I realized that like Ali I, too, have not participated for sometime but this weeks idea from M sounds most intriguing - she says
Do you have a piece of jewelry or other item that holds great personal significance for you, and that you wear or keep with you every…
Well yes!! I am excited AGAIN.
For a long time now I have wanted, as part of my role as community Chaplain, to do a ‘walk about’ on the estate but felt rather inhibited walking around aimlessly on my own.
Enter Rob – Street Warden (I asked him to look important for the photo)
I met…
Elsie is one of those quiet unassuming people who you wouldn't notice or look at twice. Elsie doesn't make an entrance but arrives in a room quietly and gracefully, she doesn't have a hearty raucous laugh (unlike me) but a gentle quiet chuckle, you wouldn't hear her speak, sing, laugh above anyone …
Not too sure what startled me on the London Eye? could have been the lovey-dovey couple who only had eyes for each and never once (not that I saw) seem to look out of the capsule at the scenery.. I must be getting old!!!
What a day! Nigel and I decided that it was about time we put our Tesco coupons to good use and get our ‘annual pass’ for the some of the London attractions. So off we trundled to the London Eye to get our pass only to be told that the machine wasn’t working!! however, the very kind lady gave …
