273/365:2010 First Christmas Card

273/365:2010 First Christmas Card

Yes, it's the last day of September, and I've just received my first Christmas card! It's part of a mailing from Hayes and Finch, the clerical outfitters and church supplies stockist.

I don't think we'll put it up just yet!

272/365:2010 Funderland

Just a quick shot taken from the Boucher Road, near the Driver and Vehicle Test Centre. I wouldn't be a fan of these sort of things - at BB Camp, I was always the designated bag and wallet carrier as I didn't go on any of the rides!

270/365:2010 Fish Eye Lens

Having experienced the taste of 'typico canarias', we made some seafood paella tonight. The prawns we got had been beheaded, otherwise we would have had a real fish eye in the picture!

269/365:2010 Ballyvea Hall

Preached tonight at a harvest thanksgiving in Ballyvea Church Hall, in the townland of Ballyveaghmore in the parish of Annalong. The wee hall is up in the Mournes, and you park in the field beside it! It was great being back with the people of Kilhorne.

268/365:2010 Lost and Found

268/365:2010 Lost and Found

The other issue with our flight home was the rerouting due to French air traffic control striking. A longer route over the Atlantic needed more fuel, but the plane would have been too heavy to take off from Arrecife airport. Most of the luggage was removed from the plane, to be returned to us at some point. Two days later than us, Lynsey's bag arrived home.

267/365:2010 A Joyful Reunion

Pippa returned home from her holiday at the kennels, and we had a time of playing out in the garden to welcome her home! Lots of excitement all round!

266/365:2010 Last Resort

Our last day in Playa Blanca, and another warm one. We had loads of time before the flight to take a walk up the town, and then it turned out we had lots of time at the airport with the flight delayed by four hours...

261/365:2010 Holiday Tunes

Or rather, the lack of them... I discovered today that my iPhone had wiped the iPod section, leaving me with no songs, playlists, podcasts, audiobooks or tunes!

I used this yesterday in church as the object for the childrens' talk, speaking on the unfruitful fig tree in Mark 11. The checkout guy in Tesco didn't know what it was!
