I’m not big into eating out, but here’s a nice one in Limerick, Ireland. It’s near the cathedral, the river, and the Hunt Museum.

When I was a child, everyone around me was a Roman Catholic. As a teen, I was into the Beatles, who were interested in transcendental meditation. That triggered an interest in other religions and other Christian denominations. I wasn’t happy in Roman Catholicism. Most of my friends went to Mass because it was expected of … Continue reading Focus on Jesus

Tough question – I like dinner to be relaxing. If I was with someone famous, I’d be a bit nervous 😁. I have read plenty of fiction over the years, but mainly the classics. So, it would need to be someone like Charles Dickens, Mark Twain, George Elliot, Jane Austin , Anthony Trollope, or Emily … Continue reading Wayne Grudem

I remember being in a car crash some years ago. Thankfully, none of us were seriously injured, but the car was a write off. I was on a road perhaps around 40 miles from home. This stranger was hanging around looking at us standing next to the wreck. And then he offered to drive us … Continue reading Good Samaritan

I don’t have any pics, so I’ll show something like them: What fascinated me was that … Continue reading My Fish 😀

I don’t know if I can think of the best piece of advice that I’ve ever received. I can certainly think of something that The Beatles sang – a song that I became familiar with when someone lent me the “Blue” album back in 1975, when I was 12, going on 13. And I regularly … Continue reading Let it Be

Well, as you go through the stages of life, you worry about different things – whether girls find me attractive, what find of a career I’ll end up with, and day-to-day stresses at work and so on. Now that I’m retired, my chief worry is probably health issues. I don’t have any major health issues, … Continue reading Hell or Purgatory
