Work on the new BerryBunch.family website is coming along really well. So here's a brief update. 😁

We're missing making new video content, but with covering the Breakfast Show on Konnect Radio we're glad of the change in our usual routine on top of all the work for the new website, which made covering the usual host doable.

A change is as good as a rest, and we had a blast with those 7-10am weekday slots.

Dave the Dog is missing recording too, but he'll be back doing some more story times from this coming Saturday - for our regular 3-6pm Sunday show on Konnect Radio.

And I'm taking two days of proper down time, just munching chocolate hob nobs, drinking early grey tea (sitting by our roaring log burner) and deliberately doing nothing much else except a drive to the sea to drink from a flask and watch the waves crash against the beach.

I’ve heard more conversations about ‘New Year Resolutions’ this year than ever before. I’m not sure Cadburys will survive the amount of ‘no chocolate all year’ resolutions. I mean… I’ll do my bit to help… 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣

@Jo_PrayerN_actionCenter

He hasn't communicated with me for a good few months now, so I can't tell you how he is I'm afraid

Persecution is on the rise on India, especially in Chhatisgarh State. I've seen videos of believers getting beaten by bamboo poles, and their rice crops stolen.
From a friend:

Situation got very serious in Narayanpur city. While we all were celebrating New Year in different places. They destroyed several churches from last 3days including one of our village church. All the Christians from these 3 villages are sleeping in jungle from last 3 nights. They are seeking to kill Pas Rajmal. He is hiding from few days. Please pray. Around 9 hundred persecutors gather and attacked 2 of Pas Rajmal Karanga's place on January 1st. A Mob (4000 people) gather in Narayanpur city. Destroyed Christian school and a church. There is a curfew now. These people want to close down whole Baster division. In Baster there are 6 districts including Bijapur and Narayanpur. My family (The Overseeing Pastor Ramesh & Family ) has to move out today to be in a safe place. Please pray for us and our protection.

@tanjaostman theres a line in a film spoken by Wil Smith, in I-Robot.

He'd been stating how the robots were not a good thing, and then the whole world realises as the robots take over.

As he dashes into a building to save someone who heavily criticised him for being paranoid, he utters the following words:

"Somehow, I told you so, just doesn't quite cut it".

Seems rather apt right now doesn't it

The only clarity I have is that the leaders of nations who were the most scared about their eternal destination, were the most controlling of their peoplez and the most insistent on vaccines to fix everything...even though we all, already, knew that they could - at the very best - do nothing more than perhaps reduce the symptoms in some people if they had a bout of covid

So sad when logic is thrown away as it was

For a world obsessed with reason and rationality, it soon disappeared when it didn't agree with their world view

@KarlGessler congrats on the pregnancy

Will have to watch in a PC. I paused on my phone and now can't watch or comment via YouTube!!

@tanjaostman we may well not be the norm for the UK. Some people can be almost rude about you arriving at their house, and the need to remove your sirs before you're allowed to come in

Cold feet is the one thing I've always been susceptible to, and I don't like others getting cold feet.- under floor heating is certainly no common in the UK

@Cherishingsparrows2020 makes some great points

Personal I'd prefer slippers over shoes in the houses, but they're so expensive.

Hardwood floors downstairs and carpets upstajrs is my preference (not that we get any say with renting houses)

@tanjaostman sorry for the delay. Notifications got turned off on my phone and only just found out

Please consider praying for my wife Sharon (76) has upr jaw cancer surgery January 3. , then left cancerous kidney removed January 18. We are blessed with wonderful medical help and detection of cancer not known, then short time to removal surgery! God is blessing .. however your prayers are coveted.. it will be traumatic and the surgeons do there part but God is the healer! We both trust our savior Jesus & ask a His loving care!

"Coming in Hard"
Rooftops appear to be the claimed territory of all creatures of the air. By the way they behave, I have oftentimes wondered if some birds think they own the place.
Still, it allows us photographers to get photos like this.
Seeing the crows flying back and forth, an idea for a particular picture formed in my mind. After one or two unsuccessful attempts, I caught this highflying crow coming in fast.
Mastering the framing and timing was tricky. But you can thank my extraordinary photographic acumen for the pleasure of viewing this image. 😏
