Friday 4th May - ROOTS Day 1

No incredible revelations today - certainly nothing as exciting as the castle room! Upon further research today though it turns out that this room is the poshest one in the hotel...I suppose you could call it the honeymoon suite. I think that says something pretty special about mine and Jon's relationship.

The afternoon has gone pretty smoothly. Once a few venue things were ironed out and we were soundchecked I was pretty well relaxed for the rest of the evening. Songs this evening were:

Give thanks to the Lord our God and King
Wonderful so wonderful (Beautiful One)
Lord You are good
There's no condemnation (I'm alive)
Strength will rise
Open the eyes of my heart Lord
Blessed be Your name

That's not interesting really - but it's nice to keep things recorded proper like.

This evening we celebrated Shawn's 33rd in style at Nandos. Complete with chocolate caterpillar cake it was proper good. Good chicken and good company. Had a nice chat with Suz about her trip to Zambia - sounds pretty amazing. You should chat to her about it some time. Here are a few of the animals she encountered while she was there:
















As you can see she encountered some fairly scary stuff over there. Hopefully she will leave a comment at some point to explain her experience in more detail...or summit...

And finally, here is a picture of Me, Glyn, Michael Owen, Chell and Suz on our way back to our respected sleeping venues...being taken there by the Goldmember. As you can see we are still very happy at this point. Long may it continue.
