Weekend

Just wanted to post about the weekend.
I was up in Yorkshire in a cottage with Esther, Rachael and Jon. It was a lovely cottage, right by the steam railway in a village called Oakworth near Haworth (Bronte Country).
It was nice to get away from the mundane, day by day life really and it's such a beautifu part of the country. On Saturday we went to Bolton Abbey an absolutely gorgeous place. It was so lovely to go walking there. For once fear didn't get the better of me and I actually crossed the river on the stepping stones that are in the picture on the right, not an easy thing to do when you have short legs like me!!
We also went to some lovely tea rooms for lunch, nothing like homemade chicken soup to warm you after a walk.
I think one of the funniest parts of the evening was the many games of Cranium that we played. I was on a team with Rachael and Esther was with Jon and we both got stuck on the datahead questions for 1/2 an hour.....by this point I think Jon was praying for the second coming!!
On Sunday we went to Abundant life church in Bradford. It was quite interesting to go there and see how their church has worked. God is using them immensely and they have been blessed with such wonderful provision. It's just sometimes diffcult to pickup the complete dimension of a church when you are only there for one service.
Anwyay am back now, it was a nice weekend away.....just need another break to look forward to now!!
