can anyone compile a list of as many as possible past and present co/do's from the uk?
i missed this thread five years back, i see the names of now absent friends posting on here. i wish them well as they have moved on.
a name from 10 years ago--CO Michael Ganderton. i had heard he went as a CO many years ago. i knew him from the i o wight ( UK ) in the early 70's. he tried to get me to come back into the cult as 1975 was getting very close !
jesus in hebrew means "savior' and christ in greek means "messiah".
these are identifiers --not names in jesus case.. where did the name christ come from, his parents???
?i can see the name jesus (first name) but christ.
Cheese arse grice.
i've been on this board for years.
99% of the posters here i do not personally know.
a few, maybe not so much...lol..... do posters here get you upset to the point that you really don't like them?
the only person i dislike on here is myself.
i am thinking about buying coffee mug(s).

theresa may the british p.m. has called for an election.. the house of commons has to vote tomorrow and have a two-thirds majority to agree and the main opposition parties want it to happen too so it looks pretty certain to go ahead..
gonna be an interesting night !
mrs phizzy voted for the first time today !
we have been out for nearly a decade now, but this is the first time mrs phizzy has been persuaded to vote.. she was always afraid that jw's would see her, and then df her for it, i explained (again, we have been over this before) that they would not do so, and my son had a word in her ear too, which did the trick.. she came out of the polling station and said to me "i voted for someone called teresa may, who is she ?".
trying to wind me up, but i knew the wicked witch of westminster was not on our ballot sheet.
i havent voted for years--simply because where i live is true blue tory--whereas i'm a born-in labour oik---so no point.
but today--i voted. a protest tactical vote. still a waste of time--but at least i can justify saying i told you so in months to come.
hey uk folks, what's going with this story?
was it an unbelieving mate that attacked and elder or something?.
According to that news report "police are appealing for witnesses"
Yep.
i have been out for nearly 40 years now - baptized at 14 (although not to the org), but faded away.
but i am wondering about this:.
aside from the obvious power they wield, what's is in it for the gb?
i wonder if each of them privately know its all a load of bullsh1t---but darent breathe a word of it to any of the others !
hi folks, tight pants twinkle toes here - my first post.
i am the husband of the new poster finally left.
we both recently left, my wife after 43 years and 46 years for me.
hi Pants--welcome to the site...and the rest of your life!
the ryde , isle of wight, uk kingdom hall has been sold ( subject to contract ).
the asking price was £500,000.
one of the first quick builds in the uk.
the Ryde , isle of Wight, UK kingdom hall has been sold ( subject to contract ). the asking price was £500,000. one of the first quick builds in the UK. much needed at the time because of the growth of membership.
paid for by the sale of a previous smaller hall, contributions and donations. the sale money will go to the watchtower. the congregation members--far fewer than before---will have to share a hall with 2 other congregations.
surely proof of the wondrous contraction taking place.
