Pat, I have no idea how to upload a photo on this site... send me your email address and I will attach a photo.  

Ria, I do live in England, near London.  The only place in Holland I have visited is Schloss.  I bought Gouda Cheese, a Melktert (Milk Tart), few Dutch newspapers and had a long chat with a very friendly lady who spoke in Dutch and I in Afrikaans.

The language I speak is actually Afrikaans which is probably closer to Flemish than Dutch.  I can read Dutch but struggle to speak it without resorting to Afrikaans.  

I am learning to speak Spanish at the moment so when I go to Spain (we own a house there) I can speak to other 51% of the population.  I hardly ever have to speak it except when we go to the Supermarket.

I was told by my old Hebrew teacher that I needed to learn Hebrew because that is the language they speak in Heaven... She was joking of course.  I still cannot understand it.

Sonifo, I had a look at the camera, it is really great, I am sure you will be happy.

U.K. 8.30 p.m.

Hello Gareth.

I am here in Birmingham, W. Midlands.  Near to the airport.

Gosh you have an interesting life.  Tell us some more.

Lovely to meet you.

Jenny.

Gareth, if you click on my name, you'll see my email address.

If you have a website of your own, you can post photos here.

There's a free one mention at the top of Photos Here.

Also, if you have them resized and uploaded at Photo World (just create a gallery there for small photos that are 500 pixels at their widest and only 35K) then you can use the URL to post on this site.

Thanks Pat, I prefer webshots, they have a lovely screensaver and desktop which suits my needs exactly and I have a wide variety of photos there.  Have a peek if you will at

http://community.webshots.com/user/garethparkes


It has quite a few from St Georges Park, South Weald and Warley in Brentwood as well.

Gareth my son is also busy to learn the Spanish
language. But when i am retired then i am going away in the winter and i go to South Spain a lot people in Holland are doing that. I love Spain it is so good to be there. But it is nice that you can speak a view words  Dutch, JENNY is also learning it sometimes we mail in Dutch and sometimes in English but she know a lot Dutch words very good Jenny.
She say only the grammar is so difficult but that is for me so in English.But i think you have been in Schoorl

SONJA  a very nice photocamera they you get and i think you are very happy.

I wish you all a very goodnight it is 10.29PM in Holland.
Bye Love RIA

Gareth, will they allow deeplinking?  I'm not sure if they do.

Until we get it straightened out I'll upload to the CP site for you.

Just send me photos!

I have a site a Webshots too.

Would you like to go on a hike in North Wales?

Gareth, I've never put a link in for my Webshots and I'm not sure if that works.  I'm looking at yours.  Let me know, ok?

Good night, Ria!

Have a good sleep and we'll talk to you tomorrow.

Hi Jenny, I cannot complain about the experiences I have had.  I have lived a full life and have coped with constant and rapid change in environment and circumstances.  Without Jesus I am not sure how I could have coped, perhaps I could post my testimony sometime.  I don't want to bore you all with talk about myself, even though I think I am very important and could easily get my tongue wagging for a few months reminiscing on the past.

Ria, I am just managing to communicate in Spanish, it has not been easy to learn.  We own a 2 Bedroomed home in Quesada near Torreveija which we let out to our friends and family for holidays.  We do not get to stay there too often even though air fares are cheap, my people are elderly and they just seem to get sick and some even die every time we are about to go on our holidays.  I am not sure I want to retire to Spain, I do love England.

Etta, what a sad story.  I am not sure it is really the illegal aliens that is the problem, but rather the state of mankind and the sin people covet.  We are only on earth for a while, we need to look at how we can learn to be gracious and a blessing to everyone, to be Gods representative in the world he created and placed us in.  It is easy to blame someone who is different to us for the problems in the world, it is better for us to tell others the good news about the love Jesus has for them and what he did to release us from the power of sin.

Blessings to all

Gareth,

The Lord Bless you indeed.  You said what is on my own heart. (Ps 24:1)

Yes please post your Testimony for us.  Pat and Iain our very dear brother on the Isle of Lewis have sections for this.  I would love to read more about your walk with Jesus.

Good night and God Bless you
and all who come in  later.

Jenny.

Janet..........

There are pros and cons in having a (Young) pastor just out of seminary.  The pros would be his fresh approach to the Word, and he would (Or should) be showing his "First love."  He no doubt will be working very hard to present the Word.  However, he will most likely be lacking two very important requirements needed in a pastor.  1, he may not be seasoned in life, and it will be very hard for older members to go to him with any one of myriad problems in their lives.  2, He won't be sufficiently experienced to understand compassion.  But! If he has, and understands love, God will help him with the rest. Since you now have him, everyone must come along side and give him lots of support and encouragement.

I have posted an update onm my friends nephew in prayers.

We haven't sung this since the beginning of Jan.  So. let's sing it tonight...

Hello again everyone. How are you all doing tonight? I'm doing good. we had mc donalds today. YYUUMM!! It was really good.

Hey MOM only three more days tomorow. cool!!

Well gatta go

have a nice day!

Zachery

Lee, if you go back you will notice that was a cute story out of Reader's Digest (again.)  I thought the "greener pastors" was cute..........I think some must have read it as "greener pastures."

I have sat under young, middle aged and elderly pastors, and yes, they do need compassion!

I am going to go read for a while.  Good night!

Voice lessons?  HA!  When I was 8 my mother hired a voice teacher for me.  After two lessons she told my mother not to waste her money.  

I worked all day today and as I told Gene, it was an ideal day.  Enough work to keep me busy all day, right up to 5:00, but not so much that I ever felt rushed.  Can't ask for better than that, can you?

POOOOOOOOOOr Jeane Lea!!!!

HAHAHAHAHA
That is so funny

Zachery

Just stopping by to say Good Evening to y-all. I sent some of you a great link to the photos that the Hubble taelescope took, with great music to go with it. I hope everyone I sent it to enjoys it. Some one had posted the link on SN. For those I didn't send it to here it is

HAHAHAHAHA  Pat you have a job with mugs... John just said to sell them as a fund raiser for CP! ! ! !  

Got to go back to read the rest of the posts, I am just home Groceries put away and the kids in bed.

I am still laughing over the mugs!

I'm not!

Pat you reminded me of the last visit I had with Aunt Rose and Aunt Marg.  Aunt Rose wanted to sing some of the old time hymns.  We did.  At the finish Aunt Marg said "Methinks the girl sings flat!"  That was the last time I sang openly, in any venue.

We have had a full day.I am feeling sorry for John.  He has been up since 5:00 am and with cadets and all that goes with cadets he has been going all evening too.   Tomorrow is Praise team, and Melaura is singing, so an early AM to boot.  He has to slow down,  I just don't know how, life with three girls one of which is a teenager, is busy.  So often we have said no to helping others because of  busy schedule, It seems out aging bodies don't recover as quickly as they used to.  and it appears the younger generation don't understand that concept.

Well I am off to bed. I have an early AM. so night all

Judy

Well we just drove into the Hotel here in Memphis and we are in our room ready for a good night's rest.

I am not taking time tonight to read the posts but dropped in to say we got here safely.  We stopped in Jackson, Tennessee, for dinner and I had a great Prime Rib, with salad and baked potato.

I'm looking forward to tomorrow when we meet for prayer and Bible study.  Our minister, Chris, will present the main lessons which will have to do with Christian couples and their living for Christ together.

I'll come in tomorrow.  I hope all of you have a good night's rest.

Aging bodies!!!   Just what are you talking about, Judy B?    

I'd think you have a looooong way to go before that expression would fit you.  

BTW~Thanks, Marilyn for the link to the photos from the Hubble telescope...outstanding!

hello everyone,
School was alright today. we got out at 130 cuz so many teachers where gone! well i'm going ot check into the other forums ttyl
Sarah

Good evening all.  

JudyB~that is the circle of life for ya.    babies to tots, 5 year old smarty pants to 12 year love bugs, know it all teenagers to 19 year olds thinking they are adults, 20 year olds thinking they can change the world to 30 year olds who realize we can't.  Life is fun.  Some kids don't get to enjoy the love of a family and the chance to express themselves.  Some don't even know God till they are older.  

Kids are a blessing!

Hi Pat! Did you get it all sorted out?  If I was there I would help with the Avon orders.  I love doing that stuff. The whole family could help.  We could get it done in an hour.    ((hug))

Hi Melaura!!!  

Night Zachery! Yup, 3 more days after tonight.
I bet you are just as excited as me.

Hahahhaa...Jeanne Lee.  You are so funny.

Karmat~where are you???  Did you see my question?

I better head to bed.  Night all!

P.S. Nards and Karma, I am prayer for you and your family.  ((hug))

hello everyone, just breezing through for a quick minute before I go to bed (It was a looooooonnnnggg day today).


soni -- congrats on your new camera!!  I hope you like it.  singing lessons -- i don't think it is too young, but i would make sure that the teacher has a lot of fun in her lessons.  otherwise, it will get to be a chore, and could possibly turn her off of singing for a long time.  

sorry to not stay longer, but i am whupped (thus no capitals letters, i'm too tired to hit shift!  )

Hi Jane! Glad to see you popping in.  

Thank you, Marilyn.  My hubby will like that site.  

Hi Papa John.  Glad you made it safely.  mmm...prime rib with salad and potatoes.  Now that is a real meal.  Have a fun day tomorrow.

Hi Sarah, 1/2 day.  What fun.  What did you do when you got out?

well i tried to get online but my net was messed up from our new cable line. so instead i worked on homework and listened to music off of our DTV music stations.
