so just about to head off to devon for a week as part of the cms pioneer training on missional entrepreneurship. it's the first ever week on this that we have done so i'll let you know how it goes…

i have been having computer hassles as you may have seen on facebook or twitter. turns out the model of macbook pro i bought was in a time with a batch of dodgy graphics cards but when i took it in to be fixed last time mac replaced it with the same dodgy logic board – not impressed! anyway hopefully this time round it will fix the perpetual crashing problem. i have to say it's brought a lot of joy to pc users to have a mac crashing. fortunately jen has kindly leant me her laptop for the week. it's scary how dependent we are on computers now. if you have e-mailed me recently and i haven't replied the chances are i won't for anther week!

good to see andrew jones on his travels managed to drop in to the earthquake zone in turkey to dish out some much needed blankets.
