idly whiling and wasting away whilst the malignly incurable careers purposefully on the persistent pain busily insistent
restless cries rise
long days drag endlessly on
the wheels turn slowly please wait patiently they’ll be round soon
brief time rushes effortlessly past
still silence falls
motionless lips murmur now no more their pleas and thank-yous over, they cease their quiet gratitude and the interminable ends as a line is drawn under
Nothing particularly interesting to say about myself other than after 27 years working as a GP, I was delighted, at the start of December 2023, to start work as the South West Regional Representative of the Slavic Gospel Association (SGA). You can read about what they do at sga.org.uk.
I am also an avid Somerset County Cricket Club supporter and a poor example of a Christian who likes to put finger to keyboard from time to time and who is foolish enough to think that someone out there might be interested enough to read what I've written.
Some of these blogs have grown over time and some portions of earlier blogs reappear in slightly different forms in later blogs. I apologise for the repetition.
If you are involved in a church in the southwest of England and would like to hear more of SGA’s work, do get in touch. I’d love to come and talk a little, or even a lot, about what they get up to!.
