So all went well last night when I delivered my first sermon at St Oswald's at evensong, it seemed strange signing the register as preacher. Jane and Ann were very supportive and it went quite smoothly. We had pudding ad a bottle of wine when we got home and then a not too late night but also a bit of a lay in as I was taking the girls to Manchester airport for their two week trip to Sri Lanka. No problems although the M6 had suffered major snarl ups due to a 12 hour closure in Staffordshire then a smash up our end followed by break downs and the normal queues. The airport was eerily quiet anyway no problem dropping off at terminal 2 as we seemed to be the only people. I came back and swapped round Mandy's Jazz for my little IQ and set off down to Stoke on Trent to finish the film I started in January. Because of the M6 problems I used the A50 via Newcastle which was busy but not crowed as by then the jams were starting to ease and other than northbound between the D road entry points which has two lanes closed northbound was otherwise ok, in other words I joined above the problem area and was soon home putting the fires and heating on and starting my dinner which I've already had. I need to look through my ministry course link work to tonights session so I'm up to date then somewhere along the lione get my assignment draft ready for checking and fine tuning. We had the flock of Reed Buntings back again today, the birds feeding like mad, they must know the foul weather is heading this way, just got out the thermal socks and my walking boots for tomorrow's expedition which may well be to Worcester but I need to check the weather outlook before bed as it is all very much a moveable feast at present. I'm burning the Stoke bus DVD master and that should be on our shop by tomorrow night. The Youtube channel is moving forwards very well now that advertising rates are rising, revenue needed for our Reunion and Madagascar trip in November, I've had the first quote back on it although I'll probably end up booking the car/driver direct and ditto the hotels as why pay a third party.
