We've planted a geocache!

Preaching Post is our newly planted geocache!! The coordinates are a bit off, so it may be difficult to find!

In Devon, and first to find a cache!

Well we're now in Devon - the drive down didn't seem too bad, the roads were pretty clear, and it took about the same length of time as we'd expected. Even the time we told my Grandma for stopping to see her on the way down worked out right! :)Today we were the first to find a geocache - it was hidden by the side of the road, so not the most interesting place for a cache, but still cool being the first to find it!

In Nottingham, Icons, etc...

I'm now up in Nottingham, well I've been here since last Tuesday, been having a good time. Got ourselves a travel adapter, and been attempting to find a cheap external CD-Writer - so far no luck! We went to Beeston Evangelical Free Church yesterday evening, which was really nice, and seemed very friendly. The sermon was on Acts 24:22-26:32,and was interesting - particularly the links between the Herrods, and Agrippa, Drusilla and Bernice and how they had all reacted to Paul's message. Also, on this site I've added some of my icons to my portfolio pages!

Last day at work!

Just winding down and clearing up (again) - I'm going to miss it here, but I'm going to keep in touch. Well all there is now is to give back my laptop, hand in my badge and head to the pub!!

Lots of geocaches!

We found 8 over the weekend! Lots and lots of fun, and loads of nice places around the area that I didn't realise were there.

Barbecue and sermon

At last! - I finished my sermon this morning - before leaving for the morning service. I've had a very hectic week - all cumulating in this one day! Katrina's fundraising barbecue for us was brilliant - It was fun, and managed to raise 311.36 through it! It was really nice that my parents were able to come along too. Then this evening I did my sermon. Preaching for the first time was scary - I was very nervous. I felt it had gone badly, but everyone else thought it was good - so I guess it must have been.

Found it at last!

We decided to go back to the Kench for a walk with my parents last night and have another look for the geocache.After a bit of searching we found it though - Maybe it's easier with a bit more experience!

Chile and Uruguay most stable in the region

MercoPress :"Chile and Uruguay the most stable in the region Chile and Uruguay have the highest democratic development index of Latin America, while Paraguay and Venezuela stand at the extreme opposite according to the latest report from the German Foundation Konrad Adenauer simultaneously released last week in several continental capitals. "

Companies can be annoying!

After phoning O2 at the weekend to arrange to have my phone disconnected in October when the contract runs out - they very quickly and efficiently disconnected my phone immediately! I phoned them back later on and they said they'd reconnect it for me. Still nothings happened - so tonight I phoned again and after holding for 30 minutes they told me they couldn't do anything until the cancellations team were in tomorrow!

Photo Gallery

I've added a photos section to my website portfolio now -which I'm quite pleased with. It will grow gradually as I take more photos - I'm trying to take one for each letter of the alphabet. Laura suggested the fish shape - which I thought was cool so I then had the challenge of creating it!
