About me

Location United Kingdom
Introduction When not being blown along the beach at the end of my street, I can be found hunched over dusty church history tomes discussing 16th c. Scottish church discipline... or drinking tea in Rainy Hall at New College, Edinburgh. Currently juggling doctoral studies, kittens, training for ordained ministry, a box of ravenous weasels, and a chainsaw - some of the juggled items just listed may not be necessarily correct. Ginger beer, chocolate and Jesus feature highly in my top 10 of options that enhance my life.... The Bible's a cracking good read. Wandering and wondering pilgrim-like through this randomly odd, amusing and interesting thing which we call 'life'.
