Wedding weekend!

Just a quick one. in three hours I'm heading off to Luton: first trip back. Its wedding weekend so Ruth and Ash's tomorrow and Ed and Lorraine's on Sunday. Am very excited. And a little nervous. Two preaches- really don't want to sound like I've been at theological college for six weeks (am catching myself talking about the original Greek, which is novel considering I'm learning Hebrew!). Will be very nice to see people (after church Sunday night: can I lead a small unarmed rebellion to a local hostelry?). Or maybe Monday breakfast for you non office based types?

Do pray: For good communication skills both up front and in catching up with people. Am also feeling a tad glandy- pray the voice holds out (oh and hat I look fabulous in shiny new boots!!)

(May post wedding pics here: but given my track record with photos... hmmm)

A Week Today

A week today, when all the furore has ebbed and the markets have bottomed out, our nation will awake to the sounds of bugles and church bells as we commemorate 100 years from the start of the Battle of The Somme.  I am an historian by background, and the Somme for me is emblematic of a human tragedy that need never have happened. My reading of it is this: we began a war from a variety of odd alliances and murky motivations, capped off finally by a sense that no-one had the will to stop it.  In order to give the war effort impetus, posters, propaganda began to be bandied around about the enemy, about what they would do to children and how they needed to be stopped. It worked as a recruiting effort- young men, boys, and women all joined the war effort. They joined as an act of patriotism, tinged yes with fear, but also a sense that it might be the right thing to do. They joined from across the country- but at the heart of the front line forces were thousands and ten of thousands...

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.
