bonjour mon petit legumes

hope you are all groovy
tomorrow is the set up day for soul in the city and this house is manic with preparations
oh but we did get to go to a wedding the wedding of my good friends paul and heather which was very nice

Bod (my brother) has bought himself one of the saddest things i have ever seen an offline blog where he can blog to himself when he doesn't have access to a computer so he can upload it later madness(in my opinion).
for the last couple of days we've been going door to door and putting leaflets through peoples doors i think we chose the hottest day to do that

Appologies camping and sisters

hello my groovy friends and people i don't know alike
 
i must appologise for my lack of posts over the last however long as my girlfriend has been out of the country and this was one of the few ways we could let each other know what's going on so sorry jessie cran
 
any who yes i have just returned from SPREE a weekend away for the crusaders group and met a whole load of groovy mad people (just the kind i like) if you want to know more just email me
 
anywho yeah a while back about 2 years i met my mate's girlfriend and she was the coolest person ever (still is) i haven't seen her in ages and today out of the blue she walked in to my work it was the best shock i've had in ages .  she is my twin sister not for biological reasons but rather for we were born in the same hospital and are so similar in character and such things but i just thought i'd tell you all how overjoyed i was to see her today so hello to her
 
um yeah i'm really tired so i don't think i'm going to write anymore tonight
see yall soon
 
love
*chris*
hello guys  this is a coment i made on my brothers blog in reply to a sarcastic sounding post he made about soul in the city
 
yo yo me chicken bleds
soul in the city is such an amazing thing, here tell you what lets take the religion out of it for a second
You have got 30,000 people coming to your city for two weeks and are going to be going around brixton and lewisham and orpington and bromley and makeing a change tidying stuff making run down parks and youth centre fit for use again helping people put a smile on kids faces and so many more things
doesn't that sound appealing to you
ok three years ago they sent about 1000 people to manchester and the crime commited from that week onwards and to my knowledge is 5% of what it was before, this guys is the most crime ridden area in the UK and the crime was reduce to nothing in comparison
in a weeks time 30 times that amount will be coming here can you imagine London with no crime? London with a smile on it's face if it takes the satanists to do this isn't that a step forwards if it takes the Jehova's witness'es then i'm well up for that and if it's the christians well obviously as one i'm slightly biased but i feel they are the people who can pull it off, if they get off their asses and do what Jesus told them to do 'everyone knows what the church is against but this summer lets show people what the church is for that teh church is for loving people for helping people for listening to people and that we need to show a genuine love and commitment to the people we meet
i think i've ranted long enuff i might put this on my blog any way let me end with a joke
what do you do to reduce the crime in an estate in manchesteranswer: bring down a thousand christians
hope this was all understood
love
*chris*
