Flan, Paella, Chick Flicks etc.

I had the loveliest of weekends.

Started off by meeting Tiffany on Saturday morning and going to look at this flat...I realised when we got there that I didn't have the actual flat number and level, just the address. So, we had to do a bit of detective work which was actually really successful, we found out all about the landlord and the flat just from all the lovely old neighbours. Then we actually found out where it was and it turns out it's perfect.

So then Tiff and I walked a very very long way. We got very tired and hungry and chatted a lot. So we bought lots of pasta, bread and Flan. What a winner. There was a lady who stole a bag and ran out of the shop and the assistante was shouting to catch her! Very exciting...Anyway, we bought our food and went to cook it at some friend's house. We realised we didn't have much time before the Pow Wow so we ended up boiling water but then just eating toast and flan. So much flan. It was nice :D

So we went to the Paella Pow Wow. The weather was great and we raised around 2500 euros. Awesome. Me and some of the young guys were put in charge of the music which was fun :) We put on a few CHOONS.

Church was good on Sunday. Tamara and Dan led some beautiful worship and then I went with Martin to do the youth meeting which was great fun. And then I went to the Porter's house for lunch. They had offered me a room in their AMAZING house. It's totally awesome and has a pool, a piano, a trampoline...awesome times. But I think the flat is the more practical option as well as being more of a challenge (for the spanish) and fits in better with why I'm here...to serve the Spanish community.

Then Sunday afternoon I had the house to myself so I just relaxed, skyped some of my favourite people ever who haven't yet managed to replace me :) And I watched St Trinians. And then to top it off, I was looking through the cupboards and Tiffany had left me some of the uncooked pasta we had bought, so I had that for dinner.

A lovely weekend in my opinion.

Today it's my lovely brother's birthday! Happy Birthday Jubsy! I had a nice chat with him this morning. And this evening I have tutoring.
Then tomorrow is staff meeting and then Richard, Tamara and I will be going to the International Newcomers morning where we will publicise Mountainview Church. Nice.

Ok, fin de cuenta :)
