  Things I remember growing up in the 70s

  by The Rebel in

  2. friends

  i remember sitting on my daddy's lap and driving an imaginary car, i also remember sitting on my mummies lap on the front seat, without a seat belt whilst my dad drove a real car.

  i remember we bought fish and chips from the chippy wrapped in yesterday's newspapers.

  i remember bouncing up and down on my space hopper in the garden.

  thanks for your replies--so do i infer it has nothing to do with the "holy spirit"---either by motivation or intervention ?

  i'm quite new to this site, & have realised some members have a union jack symbol under their avatar.

  i don't.. could we have a "show of hands" from any uk members?

  i've already found several by reading older posts..

  i dont suppose Bro splane would even know the air ticket cost. i'm sure they are way above such mundane things.

  How Many People are Living a Lie?

  by awokenjw in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  one of the things i often wonder about at the meetings is how many of these people are actually living a lie or sinning in secret?

  and more importantly, how do these ones stomach it?

  in my case, i have secretly dated and done things disapproved by the wt with a pioneer sister in my congregation for years and we both go to the same meeting twice a week and pretend everything is perfect and nothing has happened.
