Another bank holiday in a long string of bank holidays, another opportunity to sample the delights of the English weather. Fortunately I took an umbrella and a warm fleece with me to Hyde Park to meet up with lots of … Continue reading →

What is it to blaspheme against the Holy Spirit? It can’t be to misuse his name, for whilst the misuse of God’s name is a sin, it is not unforgivable. Looking at the situation Jesus was in, it appears more … Continue reading →

Saw The New World this evening with some of the usual suspects. As Sarah had chosen the film, I went in with no preconceptions, only knowing it was a differing (and allegedly more accurate) story of Pocahontas to the Disney … Continue reading →

Friday night was spent surrounded by teenagers at the Slough Ice Arena. I must admit, I’m beginning to feel my age as everyone rushed along around me, leaving me to trundle along in their wake. I think I’m actually getting … Continue reading →

I seem to be spending a lot of time (and money!) in Italian restaurants recently! Last night was spent at a little Italian place in Ashford called “Volare”, to eat food and listen to a chap from Focus Radio explain … Continue reading →

As Jesus hung on the cross, he was flanked by two criminals. On one side was one who hadn’t grasped who Jesus was and so mocked him, to the other side was one who knew who Jesus was and so … Continue reading →

A fine Saturday sitting around doing nothing during the day. A very nice way to recover from a rather hectic week. The day was completed with an evening celebrating Mim’s birthday at a little Italian restaurant, The Amalfi, in Windsor. … Continue reading →

Played Ed at snooker again yesterday evening. 5-3 frames to me in the end. Whilst the first few frames were atrocious – I put it down to having a new tip on my cue, I improved along the way to … Continue reading →

Sometimes, the little man is forgotten. Regardless of the great deed he has done in saving the city, in Ecclesiastes the poor wise man is forgotten whilst the rulers are remembered. Yet, were it not for this man, the city … Continue reading →

You may have noticed I’ve turned off comments – or you may not… Anyway, it would appear I need to put up some comment checking into my blog, as I was spammed to the tune of around 1300 comments by … Continue reading →

I’m slowly getting used to the possibility of living alone. I looked at a couple of flats and could picture myself coming home from work, and doing whatever I liked – play the violin, piano, computer games, cooking, read, watch … Continue reading →

After much public debate, Lord Joffe’s bill was put before the Lords, and defeated. I think this is a triumph for the notion of sanctity of life. As far as the bible is concerned, we are all made in the … Continue reading →

A definite feeling of deja vu this evening. I’ve spent most of the past few Friday evenings explaining that justification before God is by faith alone, in Jesus Christ alone. Imagine my dismay when I touched on the ten commandments … Continue reading →

Well, I’ve started looking for a property to purchase. I’ve never done this before, so it’s all a bit new to me. I’ve talked with a lender about a mortgage, found out how much I can borrow and I had … Continue reading →
