Busy few days, replaced the chain on the bike. It was to say the least, worn out. There should be little side ways bend in a chain, this one made a very nice arc! Anyway that should be it for another 10-15000Km. The only thing I have to do on the bike now is replace the Rev counter cable which has snapped. Going to try and just replace the inners to save some money.
Yesterday was the Team leaders training for New Wine in London. Went up by train and had a very pleasant journey. However arriving at Paddington I became aware of how lucky I am to live in a relativity quite part of the country. I cannot remember how long it is since I have been in such a busy place. To see that amount of people rushing about was scary to say the least! I had to make my way from Platform 1 over to 12. Anyway made it without having a nervous breakdown and caught the train to Ealing. Had someone pick me up so saved the one mile walk to the office. The training was interesting and I feel more relaxed at taking on the ream Leader role and it was good to see familiar faces. One major problem I have is remembering people's names, I am trying to write them down as I meet people and see if that works! However, one thing I learned form the training is to focus on your strengths, so that is what I will do. Late's this week at work so no early alarm call, that comes the week after where I start at 0438!!

Off topic: Have you watched Rev. on BBC2 . I really like this new situation comedy and I thought you may like it regardless of the liturgy adopted at St. Nicholas.
yes I did, I did miss the first one but this weeks was very good. Like all situation comedies has it base in reality. It did make me laugh and I look forward to the ones to come.
Glad that you are enjoying it too. The best line this week was when Adam tells Darren that he cannot take over St Saviour's next week because Adam provides a sacrament and NOT a show!
The first week was about the many parents who suddenly attend church purely to gain points so that their child may have a place in a faith school that is doing well in the league tables. Those parents do ANNOY me.
