There’s hope for all of us…!
It’s been a while since my last blog, and alots happened! Two weeks ago I got to preach at St Paul’s, and in the weeks running up to that I had to concentrate on preparing. I took a day off for a “Day apart” with Sister Pauline, who runs retreats in the local area. Sitting in […]

When you were at school did you get asked to remember that how each one of us behaved, showed the world what our school was like? I remember thinking this was quite wrong really, and also resented as the oldest of three, the assumption that discrepancy I might have, would be instantly mimicked by my two […]

I heard an interview with Helen Fielding recently, who was herself shocked to see on the BBC news one evening, an announcement that Mark Darcy had died, shortly after an update from Syria. In her latest novel, ( which I’ve not yet read), she apparently kills off the leading man, who captures Bridget’s heart in […]

Do you struggle to give things up for Lent? Me too! I find it easier to commit to new practices such as reading my bible than trying to go without chocolate wine or chips! I’ve got a book called bible study for busy women and normally I’ve read it before bed or to start the […]

Stuck in a Moment – U2 First: a disclaimer. I am not a huge U2 fan. I quite like them; they’ve certainly made some great songs. For some indie fans, ‘Bono’ is now shorthand for ‘pompous-naff-rock-idiot’. Granted, I am always suspicious of anyone who regularly wears sunglasses indoors –…
Bye Vick
I am really conscious at the moment, that I am truly blessed to be a member of a church congregation. I’ve started thinking seriously about training to be a vicar, and I couldn’t even contemplate this, if I didn’t belong to such a fantastic church family. Tomorrow is a big day in our church community, […]

I had a lovely conversation with our oldest this morning, as we went into the hidden identity of grown-ups. It is possible for a grown-up to have formerly been a child, to be a brother or sister as well as a mummy or daddy and even for granny and grandpa to also be brothers and […]

It’s definitely getting closer, the excitement levels are rising, our oldest asked tonight, should we get the stockings out now, just in case, so they are ready? After a marathon couple of days of trips out, theatre and parties, today was slightly calmer and as a result he’s wide awake at 9pm! Hopefully on Christmas […]

The media coverage today of Nelson Mandela’s death has got me thinking about forgiveness. It is truly awe-inspiring and humbling to think that a man can go from being imprisoned by a brutal system because of his skin colour, and go on to shake hands with and forgive the architects of that very system, which […]
