Trying to see the world from a Christian perspective

This Blog

I only write occasionally here now, as you will see. However, there is an archive of over 2,000 posts which I’ve made over the last 20+ years, which are all still accessible.

  • The Weekend

    I seem to do this every week! Make a post with a title “The Weekend”, or something similar. It could be to do with the apparent recurrence of weekends in the calendar 😉 Anyway. Yes, it’s been good. Saturday afternoon I went to Colchester, had lunch with Philippa, and then we went into town to…

  • Interesting plays, and things

    Yesterday, I went to Colchester for the evening. Me, Philippa and Alex went to see a play called ‘Marat / Sade’. You can read the write-up on the Essex Arts Office website. It was… interesting. I have to say, I don’t mind things being weird provided that they’re making some kind of point, or being…

  • Why I Hate Christmas

    You know, I really hate this time of year. Some people might find that rather strange, given that I’m a Christian, and after all – Christmas is about Christianity. Right? Well, yes, this is true. But I don’t hate this time of year because of that. It’s because it’s so incredibly far from how it…

  • Rise of the machines?!

    It’s amazing what they can do with technology nowadays… well, not just technology. The Borg are coming!

  • Not much to say!

    Good weekend. Foz’s party = good. Good to meet up with people I haven’t seen for a while. Staying with Philippa and her parents = good. Home safely now. Work tomorrow. Sleep. Bye…

  • New records!

    Well, I’ve finally got some new records for the first time in months! (Apart from the three I got in August). So, that’s good! This weekend, I’m going down to London. One of my friends, Foz, is having a birthday party down there! Which I’m quite looking forward to 🙂 So I’ll be staying at…

  • Blogger SUCKS!!!

    Why is Blogger either always down, slow, or having trouble? — suddenly all my posts seem to have disappeared! I’m sure they’ll come back (I hope) but this is stupid! I think I’m going to write my own system…

  • I Heart Huckabees

    This evening, I went to the cinema to see “I Heart Huckabees”. I have to say, it was probably one of the most original films I’ve seen in a long time. It’s really very refreshing to see a film which actually looks at ‘existential’ issues, looks at the meaning of life, and doesn’t draw any…

  • I got paid!

    Wooohoo! I got paid today! Yeah baby!!!1111one On a totally unrelated note (totally), I got a new mobile number today 🙂 This means that if you haven’t already heard from me (sorry!) and want to stay in touch with me, you’ll need my new number. Please drop me a line and I’ll give you the…

  • I think I might have posted this before…

    … but it’s worth posting again. I’m just reading The 2004 list of words that must be destroyed. I found this one good, and still relevant… “weapons of mass destruction” Right now the most active and threatening weapon of mass destruction in the entire world is the United States of America, so knock it off…
