Evening ride

Chapel
Setting out at around 5:30pm I took my old (scenic) commuter route from Pembroke Dock towards Bluestone via Carew, East Williamston, Cresswell Quay, Burnett's Hill Chapel (pictured) and Martletwy, then carried on through Wiston and Clarbeston Road towards Llys-y-Fran reservoir. Quite a lumpy start.

Conditions were favourable; sunshine, but a stiffish breeze to keep temperatures down, though I soon got a sweat on.At the edge of the Preselis I headed east towards the village of Puncheston, on to Little Newcastle and Letterston, where I had a vague hope that their award-winning chip shop might be open (it wasn't).

I put my lights on and headed south down the main A40 through Wolf's Castle back to Haverforwest where I joined the Brunel Trail back to Neyland, and over the bridges to Pembroke Dock, arriving home at just before 11.30pm.

musicians...

‎"The musician is very close to mysticism, far closer than the philosopher...because music is meaningful without any words; it is meaningful simply because it rings some bells in your heart..creates a synchronicity between you and itself, when your heart starts resonating in the same way, when you start pulsating in the same way."
- Osho, Philosophia Ultima

Gather Together

Gather Together is a new style of stripped-down Christian family praise, designed to be light and airy, to give God room to move.
I started it at the start of the year (Jan 2nd) and have done it each month since, on the first Sunday of the month.
It is starting to attract families, and God is definitely getting Himself in there.
My daughter Jasmine (10) said over dinner:
“Church gets boring when we go all the time”
“Yes it does,” I replied, “We all feel like that sometimes.”
“it makes me not want to go.”
“What about Gather Together?”
“Gather Together is what church should be like all the time.”

Amen.

Bridge

The rain soddened my trousers as I cycled across the bridge. There was a sausage on the cycle path.

Quick!

Mavis, I need you to say something witty, quick!
What’s witty?
Clever. Clever and funny.
What?
