Re: What have you done today thread?
Up early enough to sort breakfast and coffee for the wife. Then out to do some shopping for my daughter. Back home, emails and getting ready for Sunday's service. Then down to Maidstone, daughter to clinic. Back home, then I went to the hospital on the bike (free parking and quicker) and said prayer...

Re: I'm getting too old for this crap...
Just some fellows out for a gentle ride in glorious weather. Nothing better than just enjoying the scenery, not becoming part of the scenery due to speed and reckless overtaking of vehicles (not saying you did that!).

Re: Depression
I am dealing with a couple of people going through depression, anxiety and thoughts of self harm/suicide. One of the biggest things is to help them be referred to decent services who will actually listen to them and help them. I am not an expert in these issues, I can listen and pray, but being refe...

Re: What have you done today thread?
Car booked in for tomorrow for a new window regulator. Dropped down this morning and jammed. At least the mechanic could haul it back up and I can use the car today. Off to take a service now and carry on with the Bible Study series. Meetings this afternoon and then hopefully a quieter evening.

Re: The Triumph
Had some fun rides into Rochester and back and on the local roads. Bike feels so much better. It is well worth getting new shock by the feel of it! Who would have thought that! Any how, I am still enjoying the bike, I need to have a look at doing some minor cleaning and detailing, but nothing major....

Re: What have you done today thread?
Yesterday now. Hit road debris, tyre went "pop". Managed to pull over safely after 200 yards. Then changed it with the full size spare in less than 20 minutes. What was nice was people stopped and asked if we were okay and needed help etc... Then went on to Lavenham and had a brilliant day...

Re: Depression
Two weeks away on holiday, lots of walks and getting out with the daughter. She had massive issues with eating in public, so had to hide and so on, but we managed to get through the time. She has been able to get out each day for a considerable amount of walking (heck, I lost weight, so it was a lot...

Been away from this for a while. My daughter has been through the mill, bounced from therapist to clinic to A&E to nearly being sectioned and now back to the clinic, and this time the right one. She is anorexic, autistic and depressive. But she was referred to the food disorder clinic, so I've b...

Out to Rochester HMP YOI to have a look at how they can do worship with their IT system there. Was able to suggest a couple of work arounds (tight firewall policy) ...
