    Don’t worry about that. I’ve not even read it. Hope there are no swear words… my mum wouldn’t approve.

    Oh. Wait. She cheats in tests. She’d be fine with swearing.

    Sorry about the changes… caused by an upgrade I wasn’t really aware of doing (story of my life at the moment!) so the site wide feed is missing just now. Should be sorted shortly. In the mean time I’ve posted on my actual blog:

    This time it’s the Nowhere near weekly ethical debate

    Enjoy!

    This weeks debate comes courtesy of goodcharacter.com… because I have lots to say but don’t seem to be able to write it at the moment I thought copy and paste was the way forward: Georgia’s hands were sweating. She was fifteen minutes into her math final when she began to panic. This exam was worth most [...]

    Yay! How has it taken me a week to find this?! It was great to see you… also… home births are the best. I hardly felt a thing. And Sian got the undivided attention of not 1 but 3 midwives (well – 2 fully trained and 1 student but she seemed well trained if not [...]

    Oh no… I can’t believe I missed a call from Barrie… ring me back, ring me back…
    Thus I learn another important lesson as a self employed freelance type worker… never have a lie in or ignore the phone.
    Hang on. You don’t have my number?!
    And also – yay to the new commenter – you get [...]

    Part of the joy of working from home as a self employed web type person is that I am my own boss and I can have a lie in if I want. As happened this morning.
    But that doesn’t mean I fail to bring you the latest of the goings on in my office… enjoy.

    I’ve just started reading the pdf version… I’ll try and keep up. Only on the introduction at the moment but already learnt that passion is based in a latin word for suffering… maybe I should have know that already.

  • Andy Hoyland wrote a new blog post: Are you with me?

    Evening all.
    A few things today. Firstly – Bible reading is going well. Spoke to a friend of mine about Old Testament stuff and he mentioned the fact that the reason to read a lot of the Old Testament is actually so you know what bits of the Old Testament really don’t matter [...]

  • Andy Hoyland wrote a new blog post: Episode 5

    I started this week by having breakfast with a couple of guys from St John’s (Ali Johnson & Mark “I don’t have a blog so you can’t link to it” Wilson) and I thought it only fair that I give you a bit of an insight into what goes on at these special times. [...]

  • Andy Hoyland commented on the blog post Week 6

    I can fully believe it was less daft in the original before the tutor got hold of it and pointed out there was a word limit of 100000 +/-10% and that some words had to be cut out while still saying it would be useful to include more detail in lots of places but ALSO [...]

    So I got through Leviticus. All the while thinking “I want to be excited about this but I’m really not”… this wasn’t helped by the reading of Velvet Elvis (more on that soon) by Rob Bell where he says that when they started out Mars Hill church he spent a very long time [...]

    Slightly late this week. Sorry. I don’t have much to say though. Mainly because I’m reading Leviticus.
    I have to say it’s going to be a struggle keeping up with this one. So much of me wants to say it’s great to read all the detail about how the Levites should work [...]

    Hmmmm… you both seem to have forgotten the important question here. If a tree falls over in a forest and there’s no one around to hear it does it still fall over?

    Ok – it’s been a little over a week but here’s another ethical debate… and as mum requested I’ve made this one more likely to impact upon our lives

    The sheriff in a southern town is guarding the courthouse against a mob that is about to storm it by force, in order to capture a [...]

    It is seen many times in Moviedom.
    Sequels so often fail to live up to the expectation, to build on the success of the initial blockbuster. I guess this is partly because we all imagine what will happen next and, no matter how big the budget, a film can not reach beyond the dreams of [...]
