I feel so lucky having Rushmere Country Park as a local training ground. It's a beautiful forest, with many woodlands, plains, hills, lakes, and all kinds of terrains. Very much looking forward to the National Cross Country Championships this weekend!

Instead, let us strive to measure our words and cultivate kindness and respect in our families, among our friends, at work, on social media, in political debates, in the media and in Christian communities.”

A great evening of cars, friends and theology at the Jaguar Enthusiasts' Club regional meet last night. Here are two wonderful Jaguars. These are very different cars, from very different eras - and yet, they both offer all the luxury, comfort, and performance you can expect from a Jaguar. :-)

Candles for Ukraine! Has your Church got excess candles / stubs after Christmas / Epiphany / Candlemas? If so, they can be remade for Ukraine, giving them light & heat. If you're in Buckinghamshire / Bedfordshire / Oxfordshire +, please get in touch & I'll collect them. Some other regions possible.
