Day Off Week 21 20223

I had to ophne the doctor first thing. I failed to get an appointment but was then able to get a ring back and that happened fairly soon so all tothe good Started on one of my birthday books - the one from my sister on camoflage. Very interesting. Had lunch in West Hampstead (and a coffee). In the evening we watched the final episode of Steeltown murders a fac based drama about murders in Port Talbot in the seventies on the BBC.

The rest of the family had gone on down to Eleri's sister's in Cardiff and I joined them that evening. The next morning Eleri's other sister and husband arrived and they all trooped off to St Mellon's to hear Ian Parry. I half wish I had gone but having been ill the previous Tuesday I thought it wiser to stay at home and read and prepare myself for the evening. In the evening I was preaching in Bethlehem, Sandfields, Aberafan. I had a lovely time with the minister Jeremy Bailey (who I know through the Westminster Fellowship) and his wife Jenny beforehand chatting about Port Talbot and sundry other things then preached in the evening to about 40 something based on Don Carson's chapter on the ironies of the cross. I then headed back to Cardiff where we stayed overnight before heading back to London the next day.
