Old soul and young heart, spirited and free
slightly constrained by constraints that she takes.
Cheekily full of that thing we call life,
longing for love and something that's nice.
Sharing her talents and love of such things;
be it music or resting or travelling the seas.
And silently suffering when no one's around
so she's strong on the outside when you see her so proud;
Longing for that which she's always longed for,
combining her passion of Christ and a man -
A man, a guitar ... a guitar and a song
with eyes just for her, and proposal along.
She trying for goodness; deep caring for friends,
giving and loving like winnie the pooh, triumphing well in such innocent joy
Now 2008 and wedding is near,
from London to Sydney's a long way to care, but
I wish you the best andb I wish I were there
Happy wedding to her and to Christian her man,
peace be to both and family become.
Terminal Five Funny Song
So British Airways Terminal 5 opened recently, quite disastrously.
Here is a youtube song for it
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=kp3bNlBi-Iw
Sounds a little bit like flight of the Conchords...

Touch Ref - Me
Today I was lucky enough to complete my level 1 touch rugby referees course.
After the course, I had the luck to referee a practice match between the English Womens Open team and a NZ team. Rockin.
Books I'm reading. Christianity for Modern Pagans: Pascal's "Pensees"

Big company or small company?
"A job at a big company is like high fructose corn syrup: it has some of the qualities of things you're meant to like, but is disastrously lacking in others."

"An obstacle downstream propagates upstream. If you're not allowed to implement new ideas, you stop having them. And vice versa: when you can do whatever you want, you have more ideas about what to do. So working for yourself makes your brain more powerful in the same way a low-restriction exhaust system makes an engine more powerful."

Ash, Madeliene, Margaret, Joe and Me. Sutties and Emerys
On our way to seeing The Importance of Being Ernest with Penelope Keith. Great show. The author, Oscar Wilde, was quite a literary genius.This is one of the chief joys of london, seeing a great theatre show any night of the week at a lovely theatre.
This show was at the Vaudeville theatre, on the Strand. We took the opportunity to have a small drink before hand at the Coal Hole, a pub across the road.

What are you most looking forward to in 2008?
UK, travelling, working out, making good friends over here in the uk. Finding out what God wants me to do in my life. Seeing the sun again!
If you could only watch one film for the rest of your life which would it be?
Maybe shawshank redemption cause it teaches you not to give up hope and keep trying or maybe Without a clue... cause it's funny, or if they made a scrubs movie.
Who do you depend on when you’re feeling blue?
Good question... Over here, Damien and bit, but mostly I just try to hide it or go to the gym or try to find distraction on the internet or tv. Claire when I'm at home... not necessarily cause she'll solve my problem, but she'll feel it with me.
Which living person is most influential in your life?
I thought of this later... and I'm going to not answer it but it is true – Jesus.
Besides my parents... Andrew Nimmo... and to an extent an ex girlfriend – Angela Kemp... who has led an extraordinary life and I'm trying to learn from her to give and be a nice person, even when it hurts, and the phrase - “It's not always all about me!”
To an extent maybe Aaron as well...

What is your worst nightmare?
Being bored, being found out, this weird dream where I'm in an underground cavern and have to move a pile of rocks from one place to another. It takes ages, but I'm nearly done and then I see another pile that I have to move that is soooo big I know that it can never be done,

Get parents to teach kids respect by helping parents realise that they themselves do believe in right and wrong and that it does matter.
Make myself a better person.
Which super power would you most like to have?
