For the Grace of God

Father, thank You for making me alive in Christ! I declare that Jesus is my Lord and Saviour, and because He died for me, I can live the abundant life here on earth. Help me stay focused on You this day & live with the enthusiasm that comes from knowing You in Jesus’ name, Amen.

It's the only road I know

I feel so much thinner and sleeker and far more healthy than ever before :)
These sweets that I have to suck now to combat the bruxism, brought on by the life-saving medication that I take, are somewhat icky. They are very easy to crunch (bad idea) and do not last as long as the Mint Imperials (contra my diet) that I found to be quiet useful, tasty and long lasting!
Well I digress, so much for my eloquence! What is new in my life? Well the diet of course - a big new thing which I do intend to follow! It is also very cold in Cape Town now; Oh, it is winter still and not at all pleasant when the heater does not have any oil. The Captain of this ship prefers to keep it that way - "Oil is so expensive Neil"
Och ai, and I am supposed to be happy. Oops gotta go make a very important call - see you all later.

Diet Day

Diet Day starts today!
(yesterday was dietician visit)
So from weighing a voluptuous 94 kg, we is going to lose some weight.
We won't mention that last year the Hippety-Hip-Ops played a detrimental part in my not gymming!
However it has become an incessant need on my part to fine down my body!
Catch you on the up and up :)

A serious diet starts to day.
Total fat reduction, in line with my medication!

Gotta go now, however, I will be back!

What an evening!

Which I will record as I have all my faculties about me (well at least I believe so)
This a quick text input as I have so much to do!
I am on the up-and-up :) and it is quite daunting.
I had an awesome weekend and was 'shack-attacked'
The Shack is an awesome place, great memories and certainly many more future opportunities!
Later.

HADRIANS WALL

Is a very long wall in the United Kingdom, and a long remaining symbol of the Roman occupation of Great Britain.
I have been there and even stood on the wall - an awesome example of masonry if ever I have seen one!
Just saw a neat film on TV about a race-horse, 'Sea Biscuit'. What a mighty fine film it was - kept me busy for a wee while.
Saw Natasha and Aunty Marel at K'bosch today.
The most significant thing today was that I collected my T-shirt from Rob in Plumstead. It is an awesome shirt! White with black print.
Also awesome was that Cathy phoned me and did really make my day!Two other awesome things happened, 1. a Freshly Ground song about 'pot-belied pigs' and 2. a pot belied pig at Rob's place, where I fetched my t-shirt.

It is great to be ALIVE!

Life's Good! A marvelous evening has been had at my sister and brothers house in Plumstead. A marvelous meal, great company and a marvelous tone of discussion.
Of considerable importance is that on Saturday is a great clash which may be witnessed by all! Wynberg is gracing the presence of my Alma Mater, SACS. I will be watching the rugby and supporting my Alma Mater beating the pants off Wynberg.
Of note is the forthcoming SACS Old Boys Dinner, Tuesday 11, SEPTEMBER!

Today I say goodbye...

...To the uncomfortable pain I have had the iniquitous honour to have born for four and a half years :{>
Colours fading into darkness, there I saw the man!
Oh what a BONUS.
A day of great joy!
Now I sincerely hope that I can post unlimited amounts of carefully composed literature, to fill the gap as it were. Later for all that...

Another Day in Africa

At the Warehouse and mimicking life!
What is the answer to the question 'What is the meaning of life?'
If your answer comes close to 42, you are on the right track!
Or so Zaphod Beeblebrox would have you believe.
Ouch! That would be ET's addition.

What a great day in Africa it is

The 'puter professor is finally Linuxising our house!
Dad's puter is now a Linux Base Station of Note!
As for the other puter thing, we have closed the window (he he he he he)

As for the rest, we will leave it to your imagination.

It is a lovely day in Africa and we are going to be Mugged @ C^2!
I have also, just this AM, got my copy of Christ Church Centenary, an account of our church centred community.
I shall see you all later (he he he he - lol)

"indeed to goodness"

Hello you lot of space cadets!
I am back at Evergreen for coffee mornings and Life's Good!
I was with 'the usual gang' at Evergreen and a fine cuppa joe was consumed.
It makes me feel alive to be there!
Pressing on, I have so much {too much:( to catch up here - oh where do I start?}
Start at the beginning...on I strive...later

Fiesta, a verbal trough of ....

...absolute nothingness.
Am I a poet? Neigh, more like a rusty old horse with a cantankerous rider who feels a bit like a fartled gruntbag!

Those were the days my friend...

It's late in the evening, and I've really blown those crowds away.
