Totally Plastered
I went down to the house today to see how the brickwork had gone. Danny Waters came with me to have a look at putting in some cabling. We were both surprised that the house was plastered… well the gib rock walls were put up right the way through. It was amazing to see what has happened in just ONE...

We took a trip down to meet the electricians onsite today and the cable was being fed through for electrical, data and telephone services. The plumbers were hard at work making us water wise and using the connections to the water tank etc. The house is looking great and it was encouraging to see how the room sizes are working out from the plan to reality. Feel free to take a walk through the house. Sorry we haven’t tidied up before you came ...

If we truly think that the God, creator of the universe will fit in our box, either our small mindedness has lost sight of the universe or we have placed ourselves in the position of being controller of the box and thus in control of God. In reading 2 Cor 5:15 I saw the error of our assumption. It...

The Apple range of computers have been on my "in sight but out of reach" agenda for some time. I have respected them from a distance but never had the opportunity to use one. Recently I had the privilege of have a loan iMac from Apple to evaluate for its place within UCB’s IT equipment range. I must say I’m impressed. It was rock solid, easy to use and impressive on performance. The new range includes Intel powered 2.4ghz chips that not only ran the native Apple applications with ease, but allowed you to either dual boot and start up Windows XP...
