  • migration

    I am in the process of transferring my life from a slow computer to a whizzy one. I would like to think that it would be relatively simple and painless. Of course anyone familiar with computers will know that ‘simple’ and ‘painless’ are not words usually associated with them. I may have resembled this man…

  • are you wearing that for a bet?

    Today is expected to be the hottest day of the summer so far in the UK. That’s not saying much for this summer, ‘dry’ is good, but it has prompted me to get one of my summer shirts out of the wardrobe. As you can see, it’s the sort of shirt that will attract both…

  • under review

    “What are people saying about me?” Have you ever wondered what the answers to that question might be? There are times when we might want to know the answers, and others when we would rather live in blissful ignorance. The answers may change at different times. Sometimes the answers may be positive, encouraging, exciting. On…

  • from sermons to sofas

    No, today’s bloggage is not recommending that we install sofas in our churches instead of pews or uncomfortable chairs. Although, come to think of it… Today is a day in which I plan to spend most of the day shut away in my study… preparing for Sunday services. The sun is shining outside, the birds…

  • lessons for dummies

    In my study I have a dummy. Some of you may have suspected that for a long time! Actually I think the technical name is a mannequin. I bought it in order to be able to photograph it in different poses and use them as photographs to accompany words on PowerPoint slides that I use…

  • the mother of all oxymorons

    I’m back. I have been away at our church holiday at Sizewell Hall on the Suffolk coast, just next door to Sizewell Nuclear Power Station. I felt quite at home! We were all quite tired when we got home so decided to order takeaway pizza for tea. I think everyone else in the church must…

  • whether forecast

    This is a whether forecast. I don’t know whether I will be posting as regularly over the next few days. I may well be preoccupied with a few other things so the bloggerel may be in short supply (stop cheering). However, I will leave you with a pre-Easter thought and the threat of possible random…

  • what do you see?

    When we left the church we were attending before I came to Colchester I was given a gift by the church of a painting (see picture above). It is by Juliet Hemingwray. The scan above does not do the picture justice: the colours are more vibrant and the gold is shinier. What do you think…

  • It came upon the blog so clear…

    So that’s it for another year, then. Christmas has been packed away in boxes and confined to cupboards, the garage or the loft… only to be considered in December as we wonder whether we will be able to untangle the lights, why they don’t work when they did when we put them away, and where…

  • a blogged ub bloggage

    I am having a good day so far today. I am on schedule to complete all of the tasks I have in my diary, which is always a good sign. Indeed at the moment I am half an hour ahead of myself, which is astonishing. The only slight probleb is the cold that is rapidly…
