Belfast
After a weekend in Glasgow, we packed our bags and flew to Ireland on Tuesday to start our social placement.
We are having a good time and we have seen some fantastic social centres, and met some great people.
We have been based at a Family Centre but we have also had opportunity to visit a men's hostel and an old peoples home. It has been a great opportunity and we have learnt so much already and we have only been here 3 days!
There is too much to write about so we will tell you all about it when we see you next.
Please pray for Social Centres within the Army. They are doing a great job of meeting peoples needs and peoples lives are being changed!
We fly back to college on Monday, and we will be busy, busy, busy as we have an assignment to be handed in every week until Christmas!!
All work & not much play!

The CONGRESS!
One of our biggest highlights of college so far is that we had to go to the congress last weekend!!!!!
We had to be up for 6am to leave for the airport for 7am! Not good on a Saturday morning!
We returned home on Sunday evening and got back to college at midnight.
Long weekend, lots of laughs and was lovely to see my mum and dad, however it would be closer to meet in Essex!

HALF TERM - The Hills are alive...
Half Term week saw lots of visitors. It was great to see some lovely friends and family!. It made us miss you all the more.
Unfortunately we still had lectures (well we did have 3 days study, but we actually did have work to do!)
sorry for those who came to stay and we didn't spend that much time with you, but it does show that at college we do work and its not all play!!!
It was great to see some of our friends - Karl had a great time playing with Jacob! Can't believe how much Sophie & Noah have grown!!!
Was lovely to see my sister & brother (and lee & Louise!) It was a good laugh. Our flat is a little on the small side, but we did manage to sleep everyone - not at the same time!!!
During this week we managed to get tickets to see the 'Sound of Music' It was great!! Even Karl enjoyed it!! And Connie Fisher was playing Maria! WE finished the day off with a nice meal (where we saw Ralph Little!!)
Another highlight of the week was having a picnic in Kensington Park with all the leaves falling off the trees - it was beautiful. It was very funny that Lee had sat in Bird poo! He had got it everywhere - how much were those wet wipes!!!
We miss all our friends and family &? love you very much!!! Thank you for being you. you are so special to us! xxxx

But our highlight has to be going to watch 'PARKINSON!'
It is his last series, so was even more exciting!! The special guests were Sir Bobby Charlton, Joanna Lumly, and Father Christmas (otherwise known as Richard Attenborough!) We only had to wait for an hour (in the rain) but it was well worth it!!
Watch out for us on TV we could be on a screen near you very soon!! Well, we hope to get some more tickets to part of a studio audience!
As you can see we are making the most of living in London - we love it! Shame about the work!!
