2008 so far has been yet another busy year. St Wilfrid's Church and The Mothers' Union keep me busy while I have two "big" holidays this year. Back in April I finally made it to the Paradores and then later this year I'm off to South Africa and Namibia.

The Mothers' Union branch at St Wilfrid's has continued to go from strength to strength. We even now have a banner which I helped with (made tea for the stichers) and it has even had its first outing at Conisbrough Church.

After the last effort to get to the Paradores I finally managed to get there (without breaking any bones) with Betty from the Isle of Mann. Below are just a few pictures of Betty, me and the lovely scenery in Northern Spain.
