I had a fantastic weekend in Sheffield. I got to catch up with some folks and also meet some new ones. Sheffield is really lovely. The men at the meet were complete gentlemen. They even carried my suitcase and sleeping bag after we left the pub. Once we got to a shipmates house, he made us all a rather wonderful cocktail, which blended milk, icecream and a baileys style drink. It was absolutly gorgeous. I even got my own bed which was a fantastic bonus.
The following day we all went out for lunch to a lovely pub in the Penines ( i will check out if i have spelt it right and edit at some point if i need to ) After lunch one of the lads dropped someone off at the station and then he showed me around his church. They are doing loads of building work and have some great plans for the church also. It all is very exciting for them as a church. He then took me to the station and he was a complete gentleman, as he carried my bags and waited with me till my train arrived ( you know who you are, and your a complete star for doing that <smile>)
I got home about 8pm and spent the rest of the evening chatting on the computer.
Today i was working the day shift. It was a good shift and suprisingly went really quick.
Im off tomorrow and wednesday. Tomorrow i will be spending most the day preparing a 10minute talk i have to give at my interview for the youth work job im applying for.
My friend melissa has helped me with some ideas. I have jokingly said that i want her as my 'Life Guru' as she always manages to say and think of the most brilliant things.
They also sent me a DVD to watch, which shows the area and some of the vision for the church. They are involved in some pretty amazing things, and would be brilliant to be a part of it all. Wednesday i will be traveling back up to Sheffield for the interview and then off out for some tea with the previously mentioned 'Star' So a good couple of days ahead i think :-)
