To Hell With The Devil

As it is Halloween today, I thought a nice bit of Stryper might help re-balance the equilibrium a bit!

TO HELL WITH THE DEVIL

Speak of the devil
He's no friend of mine
To turn from him is what we have in mind
Just a liar and a thief
The word tells us so
We like to let him know
Where he can go

(chorus)
To hell with the devil
To hell with the devil

When things are going wrong
You know who to blame
He will always live up to his name
He's never been the answer
There's a better way
We are here to rock you
And to say...

(chorus)

Cornwall (IV)

This last week being half term, we have enjoyed another break in Cornwall. Travelled down on Monday morning, came back Tuesday afternoon. When we were down in August the weather one day was atrocious. Dartmoor Zoo gave us a free family pass to be used within three months, allied to the fact that the Eden Project give an annual pass for gift aiding. This meant we had two free family passes to use, hence the trip. Stayed overnight in a Premier Inn in St.Austell.

Dartmoor Zoo was misty and damp, but a lot better weather wise than last time. Again the close up experience of being next to lions, bears, tigers and wolves was awesome. You really get a sense of the power of these animals.

The Eden Project was a better experience for me this time round, on the grounds that I was not feeling ill this time. Again the place is incredible, and is definitely better experienced earlier in the day, before the crowds get there. The colour and layout of the plants is breath taking as well.

A good two days, despite the amount of milage involved. Roll on the next time!

P.R.A.T.S. XI

For those who do not know the world of P.R.A.T.S. here is a slide show of the most recent event, as compiled by RockinJock666. They are a great night out with some lovely people. I may even be lurking in there somewhere....

Happy Birthday

Nuff said really, but feeling very nostalgic today. Times like these are when you realise that the number of close family you have left is pretty small really. I do have loads of good friends though, so thanks to you all who have stuck by me through thick and thin.

Nostalgia in tune time as well, with the lovely Clare Grogan and Altered Images from 1981.

Boys Don't Sing

Saw this series when it was first shown, and also watched the updated documentary the other night. An awesome display at the Schools Prom in the Royal Albert Hall by the Lancaster School Choir from Leicester. They had no singing history until Gareth Malone went in as part of a BBC2 documentary, and instigated the choir. Against initial opposition, the results speak for themselves.

Anything is possible with perseverance and prayer....
