Yesterday, much sitting in front of my computer screen. I am reading a discourse on left brain hemisphere 'vs' right brain hemisphere by Iain McGilcrist. His article is entitled 'Left-brain thinking will destroy civilization'. Have a read. So, off this morning to the Vineyard service. We had a talk on Romans 12 Verse 1. Tally, one of the local group leaders, gave the talk. It was her first,...

A salutary lesson for potential electric car buyers
https://rense.com/general97/ev.php If that does not make you jump then nothing will. But I digress. How is this for a therapy? Neurographic art. Watch this 5.46 minute demo. This evening I had a ZOOM meeting with a group of Christian men from Frome. We heard about a delegate from a Gafcon conference in Africa and the schism in the Anglican Church caused by the blessing of same sex marriages....
Our old-fashioned tea room / bakery

Bits keep on falling off so he will just go on using it...

So the lady with a full trolley was so apologetic that an item had dropped off and smashed all over the floor. A manager came along and carefully picked out the glass shards. He then turned up with a wet floor cleaner machine and in a minute or so the whole was pristine. I was standing nearly when I heard the smash of glass so camera in hand I recorded the scene. I saw a certain similarity of...
