I’m sure I should have reacted in the same way as Mr Angry, which is why I never fly.

Just as all of us who are about my age or younger in the UK are Thatcher’s children in one way or another, regardless of what…

Hellbound
There has been quite a lot of chatter about the Principal of Wycliffe Hall, Richard Turnbull. A video made of a speech that he made to Reform (the Nasty Party of the C of E) has even been commented upon in the papers. (Guardian here and Independent here). He identifies key marks of what Evangelicalism…

And MySpace
Might as well add a MySpace profile whilst I’m at it. Do I have any friends?
