How are you at sums? Do you use a calculator or add in your head; do you ‘keeping a diary’ to order your days? I’d be lost without my pocket diary. I’d also be ‘missing in action’ without God’s lead in counting days up right. 6 […]
Friends,
Does it bug you how easily we litter our streets, seas & fields? I’m chuffed how committed North Ayrshire Council is to recycling (what colour will our next bin be?). Christmas means much ‘stuff’ purchased, exchanged & discarded, increasing the challenge to reduce, refuse, recycle, re-use, rot, […]

Perhaps, like me, you’re warily happy & hopeful about Kanye West’s conversion to Christ and latest album ‘Jesus is King’. I love the “Airpool Karaoke” video, in which James Corden hitches a plane-lift with Kanye & his acapella singing gospel-choir. Corden’s clever clumsy-chumsy chat frees Kanye […]
