Miss Potter – A remarkable lady
Last weekend we watched again the wonderful performances of Renee Zellweger and Ewan McGregor in that masterpiece Miss Potter. The film is a joy to watch on every level. Sumptuous costumes, gorgeous scenery, humour and romance. But the best is … Continue reading
Holiday update

Rainy day in the Lake District
Walking in The Lakes with our friends John & Pauline seems to be quite eventful. Four years ago we encountered a field of mad cows near Caldbeck. Today we walked Cat's Bells near Keswick. There is a steep climb up … Continue reading
The folly of preaching
Lately I have found preaching a real struggle. This is something that happens to me from time to time. Speaking to a congregation composed largely of long-standing (or should that be long-sitting) Salvationists, I wonder if I am simply repeating … Continue reading
