An early start today as David Worthington was picking me up at 7:45am for the Cristian breakfast,en route David was berating me about being on best behaviour and not telling any offencive jokes,once there at the inn i saw why,6 of the straightest laced chaps i have ever met! and i was sat next to a glove maker and oh boy could he bore the nuts off a walnut tree,next time i want to sit between the stamp collector and the bus spotter! after our full English was downed with some fine coffee we retired to the pool room,here we discussed the faith and in all honesty people like them are really the reason folk wont go near a church all talk and no action and when i had had my rant there was a silence......
Then it was back to Davids house to have a look at the skoda that needs fixing,the alternator belt has come off and the belt with it,so we looked on line to see what a new alternator would cost,after some faffing it turned out that David and Caroline are giving the car to us and it has mot and tax til end of June this year all we have to do is give them the cash when it is scrapped,this is the most amazing act of christian kindness and will not be forgotten,truly a prayer answered and all we need do is bodge the alternator pulley.
Once home we all took a trailer of rubbish up to the dump,good job done ide say and we bought a few nik naks there too amongst which were some vintage 1950's - 1970's darts,then home to have a cuppa and fix jack and Ben's bikes,
after this i made a spoon from some of the ash i have had from Tim's mums place.
After a nice liver and onion dinner i set up the dart board in the kitchen,we got some very vintage darts at the dump and so Robin,jack and Ben had a match,and jack won! this reminded me of the dart board at my old mate Neils house and the matches i used to watch in his smokey kitchen back in the 80's,once the young were off to bed Sarah and i had a game ,she won hands down,Sarah and robin are playing as i sit here next to the fire.
So all in all a productive day and i am looking forwards to church tomorrow.
