I rarely read blogs where I cannot comment – and yes I am a chatterbox on line as well as in real life.
I blog because there are things I long to share – which is not to say they are things others long to read. I do sometimes wonder what others make of a mix of family weddings, current church controversies, sheep keeping and hairdressers.
I can’t do strip tease – the most I can manage is keeping a one piece bathing costume on. (There is a dated phrase for you!)
I do so wish there was more conversation on my blog. I know how many daily hits I get, but am not sure how many readers that equates to – more than I used to preach to, that is for sure.
I am heartened by how many who do not have strong church connections read your blog, Kelvin, mine and Kimberly’s.
But more than anything else I want to show that Christianity is a part of the lives of ordinary people, who have sheep and hairdressers (you don’t have both – you don’t have a hairdresser??) and do not, not subscribe to every idiocy believed by extremists on either side.

It is a delight that in such a manicured production as this, the play still shines out as being interesting in itself. Notwithstanding the big-bucks set and the…
