Catching Up

It was my dad's birthday on Monday and my brother Steve has designed him a website.  The last few days I've been at BU council. Items on the agenda were a Baptist-Anglican report, whether the Baptist Times was allowed to let churches advertise for ministers (the answer was No!) and a finance review, which could shake up the way BUGB spends its money in the future. Also interweaved into sessions was time for council members to engage with the new cultural landscape we find ourselves in (the reason I was there). I'm not sure this went very far and I'm not sure how the journey will continue.  It was also David Coffey's last council as General Secretary. David has been in the job since 1991 and has been a brilliant leader and will be sorely missed. I've arrived back to Stevenage yesterday afternoon to prepare for the school OFSTED visit today and tomorrow. I didn't get observed, so I escaped, but I was still up until 1.30am lesson planning. I'm hoping to take Friday and Saturday fairly easy, before the last week of term. Hopefully I'll find some more time to blog soon.
