Thursday and once again I find myself at the computer keyboard updating my blog...

It's funny how your senses react to different stimulus. When you see someone who has given you lots of happiness you cannot but supress a simle, when you smell bread pudding that's just come out the oven a sweet taste comes into your mouth, when you touch an item of clothing it reminds you of the time you wore it and had a great time! You might wonder why I muse upon such thoughts. The reason is I found a copy of Lower - Sink Or Swim a brilliant 3 track single which I listened to loads when I was younger. A couple of years back I broke the CD and was pretty devestated (it's not often you come across indie gems like this!), ever since I have tried to get a copy - including looking at MSN Music (which I really like by the way!). Today I was in Age Concern charity shop in Exmouth which is closing down and is selling everything off cheap, when I spotted the sleve of it! Hurrah! I was overjoyed and bought it at the costly sum of 20p! I also grabbed three new jackets and another 2 CD's for a total of £1.90. Bargin! Charity shops are one of my favourite things!

So back to the start, the song 'Sink or Swim' carries for me a lot of memories. Upon listening to the CD I was transported back to being a 15 year old in my bedroom back in Loughborough, sticking it on top volume and letting the bassline rip the tiles of the roof! I'd be singing along as loud as I could ("And haven't they told you the news; you're meant to be broken and brusied; and no matter which way you choose; you know you were destined to loose from the start"). Really enjoying it - it's up there with Feeder.

Talking of Feeder, was told by the ever so nice Nick Boyland that I looked like a Feeder fan yesterday. Apparently with the longer curly blond hair and the black moleskin jacket I look 'very indie'. Quite proud of that to be honest - might be the first time in my life I've had an image other than 'fashion hanger on'! Got Supergang this evening that I've been doing some planning for - looking at Jesus as a child going to the temple tonight. Also preparing for Suzie who's coming along tomorrow (isn't that exciting?!), I spoke to her yesterday and she seems to be all organised. It will be nice for the young people to have someone from outside the church coming in to do stuff with them, especially something so relevant as poverty and making it history. She's also doing a Sunday School on the Tsunami disaster which I feel will be really challenging. Anyhoo better get off and get on with some work - also fancy a nice cup of decaf tea and a plain chocolate biscuit! God Bless...
