Getting a hug from Kaz today was like breathing home.
I came across this photo of Ruapehu while sorting through my old scanned documents recently. It was taken in 2003 when I still had a film camera. I love the colours! Too bad it’s minimum resolution.
Another Sunday lunch in Kidlington with the Murphy’s, and it didn’t take long for the Wii challenges to begin. Tessa discovered a new calling in Rhythm Kung Fu, and I found that dressing up like a chicken and flying from platform to platform is not for me. Flapping your arms up and down is a tiring way to get around, and difficult to control.
As well as playing on their Wii, the Murphy’s cooked us a delicious lunch, which included this gluten-free orange cake with perfectly formed ice-cream scoops.
Community Church Harlesden recently hosted a fund-raising party for Shelter, and Kay and Tessa (who are part of CCH) invited us to come along. FUN! We got dressed up and made our way to London, along with a few others from Oxford. There were bands, raffle prizes and dancing. Did I mention dancing! I need more dancing in my life.
Beforehand we visited a few of the Harlesden ‘houses’ and they were STUNNING! Big old terrace houses that had been spruced up. It reminded me of life as a professional. I wonder what’s in store for us next? Been doing lots of thinking about how we want to live and what values are important. Not long now till this brief stint as a full-time student will be over…
