Last week, we ran our annual church kids playscheme: Funhouse. The theme this year was Superheroes and the team really got into the swing of it! Have a look at my Flickr set here.
We had over 220 kids booked in for the week which finished with a special family service on Sunday morning. Next week, we do the whole thing again for another 150 kids across the other side of town! ...
So we're back from Egypt and the photos are up on Flickr. We had a great time away and really enjoyed spending time with our friends Dominic, Claire, Rebecca, Joshua, Brian and Liz by the seaside.

We're also planning to go to London Zoo and catch a show too, so it'll be a lot of fun!
It'll be the third time I'm in London this ...

Starting at midnight, around 150 young people literally threw the night away getting in as many games as possible before 6am!
It was a fantastic night and we had great fun entertaining ourselves by coming up with the craziest way to bowl a ball. Highlights included ...
