The excitement of the new Royal Baby continued today with people wanting a glimpse of the new child as he left the hospital with his parents - the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. Torrential rain this morning (with some thunder) lowered the temperature although it did rise again in the afternoon to a sticky 25 degrees. I took Sara into Amesbury to attend her boot camp session and took the opportunity to deliver a letter in the town and sit and have a coffee in Costa coffee and read my devotionals. This afternoon we hosted a meeting of the Mission Giving Group of the church and spent an hour and a half considering and debating which charities to recommend to receive an allocation of money from the funds. I was pleased with the result which enabled a number of very worthwhile charities to benefit. I visited Morning Star later in the afternoon and was greeted with warm hospitality and a cup of tea and enjoyed a long chat with Bev, Dave and the residents. What warm, lovely people they all are. This evening three of us (myself, David and Richard) met in the Lion's Head for Pub Theology although we spent a good deal of time talking about cricket! Towards the end of the evening we did get on to the topic of ethics and the evangelical churches - a topic I will be studying (ethics) next term. Lovely cool evening tonight - so hopefully I will sleep better.
