Projector Fund & a new home for Dave and Esther

I forgot to add this before but I am starting a Fund to raise money for a video projector for the school. A lot of the churches have them here, some of which were donated by churches in the States. We have been discussing amongst ourselves how useful a projector would be in school, as we all have laptops and would be able to use them in so many different ways int he classroom. Mark is a computer guy and so has found lots of Podcasts and Flash type things that we can use to help the children with their English. So..if anyone wants to donate any more or do any fund raising or has money lying around they want to put to a good cause please let me know!


Secondly...whilst you're thinking....this is a far more random request. Dave and Esther are thinking of moving to England and have asked me where would be best! How fun is that to pick a map and choose anywhere with no ties!? Anyway, I have made suggestions, but was wondering if anyone knew somewhere wonderful I hadn't thought of! They'd like to be in a town (pubs and coffee shops), access to London, maybe near the coast -and they haven't got much money! Esther is a teacher and Dave is a carpenter, they are both Canadian and are wonderful friends here (I shall be sad when they leave in the summer). His parents are British and so he has a British passport. They had looked at a map and suggested Surrey or Bath - neither places very affordable! But what do people think? All suggestions welcome.

Lastly..thank you Gemma and Silvia for reading my blog - what is your email address so I can reply? I can't find it!! Can you let me have it!! Thanks

Morning Katharine,it seems really odd to be able to 'talk' through the computer but fantastic to get immediate feedback.(well sometimes)
There is plenty to be said for West Sussex, it is not as expensive in some parts such as Shoreham or Lancing or East Worthing.Is your projector fund something that we could take on at St. G's,(Helen,what do you think?)will investigate.Take care,God bless, love Jean.

Great idea Jean - yes we can do something I'm sure! However I'd like to be able to open and publish the prayer letter sent last week end first! Agree about West Sussex (O I do like to be beside the seaside...tra la!)and there are cheaper, sorry, less expensive bits - nothing wrong with East Worthing!
Take care.
Love and prayers,CHAT
