It was nice to talk to Lewis as I drove him and Laura home tonight. We were talking about leading worship, and Lewis mentioned about how it’s important to expect God to “do something” when we lead worship. I’m not sure he used the term “do something”, but by that I mean that God’s presence [...]

8 years ago…
December 29 07
Almost exactly 8 years ago (to the hour), I became a Christian.
I made a decision. I didn’t decide to become “religious”. I didn’t decide to start going to church. I didn’t decide to follow a set of rules. I didn’t decide to be like somebody else.
Based on the eyewitness accounts that He was crucified and [...]
“She” becomes “it”
December 29 07
Nobody has suggested a name for my new baby camera. Therefore she shall remain nameless and become an it.
Sad, sad day, where hundreds of readers let me and my camera down.
Photo-editing bonanza
December 28 07
As well as making use of my brand new baby and uploading her goods (view the Christmas 07 set here), I have just spent the last 40 minutes going through some photographs taken in Germany in the summer. If you remember, for some reason I moved the photos from my hard-disk to a DVD before [...]
Time
December 28 07
God has always been, and will always be. He exists outside of time, because He created time.
We live in this creation called Time. It is very linear to us. It has a beginning and an end. We can look backwards through time, and look at each second as it happens. We cannot look into the [...]
Is that a DSLR in your pocket?
December 28 07
The battery died within a few hours of intense (obviously) usage. Pretty good going, although my D50 can probably go a good couple of days with constant shooting. But we’re not comparing a Canon p&s to a DLSR. They are incomparable. Both serve different purposes, and I love them both dearly. And I have a [...]
She is still nameless
December 27 07
Meet my new baby. Her battery is charging as we speak. In true flickr geek style, I had to take a photo of her in the meantime. Again, any suggestions for names would be welcome!
Clothes?
December 26 07
Phase 3 of Christmas holiday takes place in Hull, where this evening I was thrashed at Super Boggle by my mother and I dropped Bryony off at a party at 11pm. I feel old. Phase 3 also involves leaving the house at 9:30am tomorrow morning to meet my new baby and grow accustomed to her [...]
New baby on the way?
December 26 07
Happy Christmas all.
I may be about to buy myself (via Christmas money, mostly) a new little baby:
A Canon Ixus 70…
Preferred holiday activity
December 22 07
Geeking is very therapeutic, and you should all learn CSS so you understand.
No books for me
December 20 07
Ok, so maybe it wasn’t such a great deal. Whatever. Still buy me one, yes? Many thanks.
Tomorrow is my last day of my first placement. Part of me wishes I could stay at that school, I have become quite settled there. But another part of me (most of me) is looking forward to a new [...]
Nintendo Wii for £239!!!

This is a great deal. Somebody please buy me it, and quick, in time for Christmas! (It’s ok, I need it to help me get fit before I get married. That’s my excuse, and I’m sticking to it.)
Honeymoon stuff
December 19 07
In reply to Dave’s comment: I think I am tired because of my PGCE… Nothing out of the ordinary, don’t think I’ll be having blood tests for diabetes quite yet! Thanks for the suggestion though
Straying momentarily from the tiredness topic, we (Beth (the Future Wife) and I) are looking for a honeymoon. It must [...]
Simply tiredness. Believe it.
December 18 07
I cannot wait until the Christmas holidays. It is so hard to get out of bed this week - this morning I got up at 7:40am, far too late! I think my tiredness is causing my current lack of get-up-and-go/enthusiasm etc. I’ll blame it on that, anyway. Wouldn’t like to blame it on anything else, [...]
I repeat. Never do a PGCE.
December 18 07
Turkish Delight Dairy Milk Chocolate.
Comfort eating? Me? Never.
Schmassignment
December 17 07
So, my first assignment of the course was returned to me today. It was graded. An A was the highest I could get, a D (40%) was the lowest. Unless I got below 40% of course, in which case that would be classed as a referral and I would have to rehash it and get [...]
