Holidays and Mainy

Things have been a bit quiet at the Sedshed for the past few days. The reason being is that I'm on holidays in Albany this week (yes...again! I took two chunks of annual leave quite close together), this time with Duncan though. Ahhh holidays are good.

Still in shock about the death of Chris Mainwaring though. There's a post about it over at the Backyard Missionary blog so I won't say much about it here. Only that while he was a celebrity doesn't mean God loved him more than any of the world's poor - but we feel we 'know' him because he was constantly on our TV screens. Sometimes we even feel 'connections' with fictional characters in TV shows. Look at the outpouring of grief when Maggie Doyle died on Blue Heelers. Apparently more than two years after that episode, viewers still rang Channel 7 asking if she was really dead!

Sad news about Mainy! And sad news about people I don't know dying all around the world.....often for their faith in Christ.
