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!!

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.

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.

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!

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. "

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!

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!

We went Geocaching for the first time yesterday - It was great fun!! We didn't manage to find the first one (The Kench)unfortunately, but when we decided to try Millennium Sails,we had much better luck (eventually), as you can see from our photos.

After all those days we bought the paper to see if we were in there - the day we almost didn't get a copy was the one!! You can see the article here.

Found a link to this cool colour toy today -which I prefer to the previous one I'd seen as this will work in Mozillla too! Got a rough draft of my sermon together, now just to neaten it up around the edges, and probably add some illustrations. Also went to see Comedy of Errors at Stanstead House tonight - it was brilliant, really funny - I thoroughly enjoyed it!
