2 days and counting...
I'm getting quite excited about the casual work I'll be doing next week - I've finally been told where I'll be working and there aren't any horrendous locations like at the side of the motorway!
Haven't heard anything from the two interviews I had so I'm assuming they're no's. Awaiting an application form for another job and I'm reasonably optimistic - there are a few posts to fill and they don't advertise too widely so there won't be too many applicants. I phoned them yesterday for an 'informal chat' about the work and it sounds ideal for me at the moment - few responsibilities, not too much to think about and always busy, plus I get to meet people too so will be able to chat whilst working.
We'll see what happens
the church is untainted with blood
Fascinating when compared with Tertullian's (?) writing that 'The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the church'. I didn't know about that particular law, but it explains why so many of the English martyrs were subjected to such horrific methods of execution such as stretching and crushing Can't work out how they would have got away with hang/draw/quartering though
