![]() click here to return to the index Sunday, May 28, 2006Mum and Dad are visiting, I'm web-editing on Sunday Morning before church and getting ready to sing and do a sermon, best of all I have completed Red Dwarf on DVD!! Busy, busy, busy! It is half term after all! My parents are visiting, I've got 24 hour prayer vigil Friday, Confirmation Sunday, J2G service Sunday, Coffee Morning Monday and my birthday wednesday!!! Hurrah! With all that I've also got to write my next OU essay - which is a tough one! Anyhoo... that's really all I have time for today! I've got to take pictures of as many of the congregation at church this morning! God Bless... Wednesday, May 24, 2006Well my tooth is still hurting though joyfully the swelling has gone down loads - the tablets are however still knocking me out! I'm currently designing a new site for gap year opportunities with Soul Exeter which is cool. Using a new template as well which is very exciting! Anyhoo better get on with it! God Bless... Monday, May 22, 2006Morning! Last night was an awesome evening of television! The two final episodes of Invasion were awesome! I have to say it's been a while since I have made a real effort to watch a show, but invasion has been it! Also continued with 24 which has also been very good - and not as formulaic as usual! The main thing at the moment is one of my teeth seems to be growing through some skin - which is painful. I am therefore off to the doctors this morning to seek pain relief medicine! Anyhoo, with the pain I cannot concentrate on anything so I'm going to go and join the craft club! God Bless... Friday, May 19, 2006So lots of exciting stuff is going on at the moment! I got my last essay back from OU and I did really well :) I'm also spending this morning doing lots of work - I'm aiming to get a really good number of notes done! There has been lots of activity on the Soul Exeter Message Boards and so I have been checking through lots of posts this week! I have also now pretty much drafted the new Xtol Acoustics site which is cool! The most exciting thing is about computers though! I wanted to get some sort of machine for my flat so I could do my assignments and personal stuff away from the office! I was thinking about getting a cheapo package from somewhere like woolworths. Lucky I didn't really, cos my mates brother has drawn up an incredible spec shuttle PC which will do lots of VERY cool stuff - this thing is so advanced it has to have 64-Bit Windows XP Professional! The best thing is it's actually cheaper than the woolies option I was going to go for!! Nipping into Exeter today for the CU, and whilst I'm there going to go into Titan and ask them if they could hard wire the laptop adaptor into the laptop for me. It's gone again, I've not really used it properly for ages - but I want to use it as a portable storage device and a music capture device! Should make the Podcasting a LOT eaiser! Anyhoo, I want to go and watch the end of Bowling for Columbine and then do my OU studies. Have a good day. God Bless... Wednesday, May 17, 2006Done a bit of an update for the old faithful homepage! I have changed the banner across the top so that people can join me at myspace, added a skype button along the bottom bar, and updated the downloads so that you can now listen to Soul Exeter talks I have done and can get hold of Devotionals for Doughnuts in PDF form! Hurrah! Apart from that I am meant to be studying, so that is what I am about to do - hurrah! God Bless... Tuesday, May 16, 2006It's been another busy couple of days that has included interviewing Rebecca St. James, numerous youth activities, Soul Exeter, Alex's baptism, J2G service, web-editing, leading confirmation classes, and singing with the choir (I nearly made a typo and put sinning with the choir!!!). It's been really good fun though! I am currently listening to Gabriel Faure's Requiem - I joined the church choir in the last few weeks and we're performing it on the 26th May (which is only ten days time!). It's a beautiful piece, though a lot to learn in quite such a short time! Alex's baptism and the J2G service were also fantastic. It's awesome seeing the young people leading stuff, and it's even more awesome to see the faces of the other members of the congregation realising what a talented bunch of youngsters we are ever so blessed to have! Amy led the worship fantastically and Cody was great at the links, by the end they were already more confident than when they had started! The baptism service was really nice, it really did feel like a family event, with us all in the lady chapel together and creating new traditions on the spot! God is good! Yesterday I had a bit of a day off (in between updating the Soul Exeter site and putting on the new podcast and the confirmation class in the evening), I went to Exeter with Dan and Cordi and I bought the new Feeder Singles Album (with the DVD special edition of course!) and then had KFC. The only downer on the day was the fact that my chip and pin card seems to be a bit mingered :( I'm going to have to sort that out today! Anyhoo, I'd better get a move on! God Bless... Friday, May 12, 2006Doing some really hard core web work today. I am looking at intergrating Soul Exeter and Bigfattoothbrush together (one being a great community site and one being a great resource site) to create a SUPER SITE! There's a lot of work to do though. I am currently making a new Joomla installation and then I shall be doing a bit of work! The main problem is getting the PHPBB installation and the joomla working together without having any corruptions of data, I will also have to merge user lists which is not going to be fun. It will however put the two sites I spend the most time on into one more eaisly managed package! Thanks for the e-mails about the midwives conference! It was great fun! I'm speaking at Soul Exeter on Saturday night which I also hope will be good - I'm talking on worship and going to hopefully give some handy and practical tips! Anyhoo, lots and lots to do... I've just uploaded all the files and I'm ready to rock! God Bless... Tuesday, May 09, 2006PCC meeting tonight! I'm not a fan of meetings, especially ones where I have to speak and tonight is no exception! No Sir! Tommorw's outlook is a whole lot better - I'm leading a 'Time of Celebration' at the Rivera International Centre in Torquay for some Midwives! It's very exciting! Means an early morning - but hey, I can cope! Busy, busy week really! FNT on Friday where I'm doing the gameshow, Saturday Soul Exeter where I'm speaking, and on Sunday Journey to God service where Alex is being baptised and though the young people are leading I do seem to have to do quite a bit of leg work (but hey I love it - otherwise I wouldn't bother!). Anyhow, I've got to go and set up my mini disc recorder and get ready for this meeting - oh the fun, oh the fun! God Bless... Wednesday, May 03, 2006Well I am very tired this morning, something to do with watching the double bill of Lost of channel 4 and then turning over to E4 and watching another episdoe - stupid I know, but at the same time quite enjoyable! Today is a medium busy day which is quite definately weighted towards the evening! Got morning prayer with the team in a few minutes, then I've got the Media Production Chapter 1 to read and take notes on, then I'm in Gatehouse for the afternoon, before a brand new after school club for Key Stage 2 at the school, a team meeting/food, and then I've got choir practice! I've brought into effect some new rules in the flat over the past week! There is now a ban on Reality TV of all kinds - it's addicitve, it's fixed, it's voyerism, it's crap TV - I'd rather that the music channels, sky one and challenge TV were on all the time! Also have put a 'mute adverts' rule in place. Why should people be telling us what we need in our own homes?! They are also louder which is plain annoying, so the mute button is now getting used in the house - hurrah! Anyhoo, I've got a few bits and bobs to do before prayer... God Bless... Tuesday, May 02, 2006Just a quick post as I am extreemly busy at the moment! Got all sorts going on! Am currently having a breather and just loading the new Feeder single Lost and Found onto my phone (its the live version from when I was at the concert)! Also my pack of stuff arrived from vista print (I now have magnets with my name and phone number on!) and some review CD's are here - look out for the reviews coming soon! Anyhow, I'd better get going... told you it'd be quick! God Bless...
