When I was learning to ride there stood in a field a huge tree trunk, it was massive. Such was the size it made the Channel Tunnel look like a drain pipe, this thing was seriously big. We avoided it like the plague, actually we could never understand why it was there for surely no rider and horse

As the Spring arrived this year, I watched as the new growth literally exploded from the ground. I began to think about the trees, which had looked so dead, but which were now budding and bringing forth blossoms, leaves and eventually fruit. I thought about the flowers which would bloom and

This week in preparation for this sermon I came across statistics for how much Proctor and Gamble spends on TV advertising each year. Guess how many of their dollars go to television? You couldn’t guess if you tried. They spend $3 Billion each year. To put that figure in perspective, it’s 50% more

I was riding with a friend in Mexico and a police car signaled us to pull over. We weren’t doing anything wrong and instant hostility and fear filled our minds. As it turned out, a policeman wanted to tell us the licence plate was about to come off our truck. One police officer came to my side of

I was invited to be a valet for Mid Americas corvette rally. It was so amazing. I got to drive a 63 coverable, a crème white 69; I drove more 2000 models than I can count. Each one got my adrenaline pumping, and I was amazed by the power each car had. I was parking them in the grass below these
