Christmas present
Bertie received a personalised Christmas present today and immediately settled down in his favourite armchair with it.
At lunchtime, out of the blue, I saw an enormous flash as I stood at the kitchen sink. Almost immediately a crash of thunder followed and the sky grew darker and darker and the heavens opened to release a month’s supply of rain in ten minutes. The gutters couldn’t cope so waterfalls fell from the roof and a stream flowed down the drive. It was quite something but half and hour later, things returned to an average winter day.
Following on from this, I went ti church where a student minister (of divinity) who was on holiday on the island had volunteered to lead our church service. He preached a cracker of a sermon, combining scientific and Biblical knowledge, keeping my attention for over twenty minutes and giving much food for thought.
Altogether, it was quite a day!
