Diary w/e 11 Aug 2018

Sun 5 Aug

Drove to Liss and preached at St Peters IPC. After lunch I drove home then preached again on the same text Gen 3, at IPC Ealing. Katy played piano in Ealing for three services.

Mon 6 Aug

Helped hate water Rachel's garden and do the grocery shopping. 32C for the second day running - or sweating. African weather.

Tues 7 Aug

Lunchtime talks - an excellent one on Ruth 4 from Dave Hills. 26 present, half not from IPC. Fewer than usual in the summer holiday season. 

Wed 8 Aug

The podiatrist, a Philippino man said my feet are in very good condition. By contrast I had a hobbling evening with pain in my right knee - arthritis? Weather cooler and therefore more pleasant.
Nineteen at our weekly prayer meeting tonight for many are away on holiday. Next week a full house of 40 go on our young peoples' trip , Swansea by the Sea.

Thu 9 Aug

Moorfields at Ealing Hospital gave me more laser treatment to stop any new blood vessels in my left eye causing more trouble. Celebrating our 49th wedding anniversary with dinner out.

Fri 10 Aug

A great day at Lords with my old friend Trevor Wells. Missed Anderson's first India wicket with third ball as late to the ground due to travel problems but despite a lot of rain saw India all out for 107 by the 7:30 end of play. Anderson 5 for 20. A seam bowlers' day. Debbie back from California bearing gifts.

Sat 11 Aug

Katy and I went to Ham, beyond Richmond, to the home of a church member who did us our first South African barbecue. We had a walk to the Thames at Teddington lock.
