Argh !!!! My new replacement iPhone came today and Linda was home to receive it at the door but it turns out they needed my old phone in order to hand over my new phone.

The wind turbines on a hill on the horizon remind me of Calvary... As the halleluah chorus starts up on my phone music player waiting for the train.

I wrote a newsy little email to a friend today in a coffee shop while waiting for Linda who was getting her hair done.... so thought I'd copy an excerpt here ( Read more... )
