Hi to all

So here I am on Blogger. I,m hooked on the internet, so much so that I've just burnt the carrots and potatoes. I am a retired violin and piano teacher. I am training to be a local preacher with the Methodist church in the U.K. I like writing poetry and you can find some on http://squidoo.com/InspMed . I think it's time people heard about how great God is. I assure you He's real, I know Him personally.I live in a lovely flat with super views of the Devon hills. I live alone, except that God is with me. So I'm not lonely at all. Hope to get to know a few people here soon.
