A Coronet For Westminster Abbey

I know that I might be better placed placed to blog about ordination and all that stuff, but THIS ARTICLE just caught my eye and has mightily annoyed me.

At the foot of Westminster Abbey are homeless folks. The nation is in crippling debt, poor areas of the country are being left with resourceless church buildings, and perhaps even more resourceless church leaders (not a criticism but thats where cuts are being made). Meanwhile we are suggesting that we put a ridiculous piece of campery on the top of Westminster Abbey, which to now has been impressive but not ostentatiously indulgent. Lord forgive us.

Remembering What I Enjoy..

Occasionally I forget things. Some stuff like birthdays, names and stuff is a normal human thing, and I don't sweat it so much. But I also forget some other stuff which is not so good. I forget what I enjoy. I don't know how it happens but it does from time to time. And its at these moments that I need a bit of help remembering. So- this is a request for help. What do I enjoy doing? What gives me joy? Leave me a comment.

Who will rid me of this meddlesome...

... piano? It occurred to me yesterday as i nursed ANOTHER bruise on my arm.. that I have had a piano sat in my hallway for 2 months! It seemed like such a good idea at the time but apparently is not... its stuck there and everytime I walk down my hall I have to squeeze past the darn thing- often not successfully! A number of options lie before me: -chop the thing into several hundred pieces -find lots of people who want to move it.. to where I'm not sure -sell it -give it away -pray it away It goes next weekend.. even if it kills me... which it might.. hummm

MK Apple Store!

Opens 1st March. I move and the joy of Apple begins to surround my home town! Hmmm.
