    Hi there
    Thanks for your welcome - of course y'all aren't intimidating! It's just a bit un-nerving taking the plunge with a first post! Where abouts in the UK are you located? I'm in leafy Surrey for my sins.

    Hi Simon - another Brit! Thanks for your welcome. Where are you based? I'm in Surrey, more through chance than choice.

    Thanks for your welcome Sixofnine - cool name! I know, the Christian bit's weird, I'm still very surprised by it myself, but it's nothing like what I was taught in the accursed Kingdom Hall. Still have friends who are pagans and witches - shunning ain't part of my make-up! And there's no compelling need to convert the rest of the world to my way of thinking, either. So don't worry, I haven't come here to start Bible-bashing! Am wondering which of my weird and wonderful posts caught your attention, ah well, must have been one of the marginally saner ones!

    Thank you for your welcome! I would be interested to know when you became a Christian - was it straight after leaving the Jdubs, or did you go through a few years of total disbelief in everything? And isn't it wonderful to discover the truth (as opposed to 'The Truth') does actually set you free? Praise be!

    Hiya gorgeous!

    Have been out of circulation for a bit lately - needed to focus more on the present and the future, but after browsing round this site, I couldn't resist joining in. Am up to my ears in various forms of therapy at the moment, which feels weird - little voice in my head telling me I shouldn't pay so much attention to myself, but then, I did try to set fire to a cardboard box in the living room a coupla days ago, so I guess I need all the help I can get :-)

    The last full moon was weird - everyone kicked off. Old friends from hospital texting me frantic messages, friends on the phone in tears...they don't call us lunatics for nothing. Wonder what the blue moon on November 30th will bring? I shudder to think...

    Hope you're doing well for yourself and enjoying life.

    Hey hey Marky! He who howls at the full moon! And a Senior Member no less! Let me know when you've firmed up dates for visiting London and I'll be sure to keep my diary free so we can talk crap, drink beer and put the worlds to rights. Am mad as a hatter at the moment but I think gradually emerging from the mists. Mind you, I've had three pints of lager and it's still only 5.30. That means rolling into church half cut again this evening. Oh well, they're getting used to it!
