Grapevine....


Since the last post alot has happened, Dave and i went to Grapevine which was amazing i just love seeing God move and work in such unthinkable ways it just completely stops me in my tracks. This year it was eventful for me but unfortunately not so much in the same way, i had an evil cold for some nasty reasons that i am NOT talking about ever again i was quite violently sick and i spranned my wrist 'catching' someone (i still can't catch may it be person or ball i just cant do it)and the funniest bit of all was me loosing my voice, but despite this i had a great time and again have come back looking forward to next year(if not for the meetings and the kids but to find granny again(see picture) teehee). i also haven't come back with any crazy plans this year which i'm sure Jon will be relieved at.
Then we went up to see Pete and Ali for a few days which was great, sometimes it's just nice spending time with someone without the need to be somewhere or do something, we could all just enjoy being with each other. I would love to go on holiday with a load of friends where there is no TV no internet and we have to get back to our old skool roots and talk and play stupid little games.
Talking of games we had a great Chinese buffet in which a genius game was born, eating jelly with chopsticks! immense!
Well here starts the beginning of the rest of the next few months, i have the children and youth leaders meeting tomorrow and work then coursework and finding a gap year and uni, then back to college so sorry if i am a bit tired when i next see you.

General update

This week one of the English teacher that Dave works with walked out on her class because of the short notice i was asked to step in. teaching 12 French students English isn't as bad as it sounds. As well as that this week i got my AS results i got D,C,C which I'm quite happy about i just have another year to go now. oh and finally i think i have found a university i like the look of, Newport in Wales.
My plans for this coming week are finish teaching then head up to Grapevine and then Pete and Ali's which should be good.
