As Wales goes in to firebreak the infection rate again fails to increase here, and in some areas continues to drop.
Interesting developments at Chester FC who have a stadium that is half in England and half in Wales. A charity is running a drive in cinema at the football ground and are only using the English side of the pitch. Unfortunately the toilets are on the Welsh side of the ground, so temporary toilets have had to be brought in to the English side of the stadium.
Okay, so if a person is going to the toilet which type of toilet will be better in terms of infection control – actually the ones in Wales. Elsewhere we have had arguments about gyms and soft play centres.
Working internationally you get used to differences like this. For example drive to France and you will find cars on the other side of the road. Yes, it would be sensible if we all drove on the same side of the road, but we don’t, and the chances of everybody adopting the same side of the road are pretty slim. I just hope people manage to programme self drive cars carefully.
It is interesting how many people seem to be talking about others and jhow bad they are. Almost like nobody can remember the saying.
Don’t pick on people, jump on their failures, criticize their faults— unless, of course, you want the same treatment. That critical spirit has a way of boomeranging. It’s easy to see a smudge on your neighbour’s face and be oblivious to the ugly sneer on your own. Do you have the nerve to say, ‘Let me wash your face for you,’ when your own face is distorted by contempt? It’s this whole traveling road-show mentality all over again, playing a holier-than-thou part instead of just living your part. Wipe that ugly sneer off your own face, and you might be fit to offer a washcloth to your neighbour.
That is the speck in the eye stuff in modern language. This attitude is repeated time after time in the Bible.
If someone falls into sin, forgivingly restore him, saving your critical comments for yourself. You might be needing forgiveness before the day’s out. Stoop down and reach out to those who are oppressed. Share their burdens, and so complete Christ’s law. If you think you are too good for that, you are badly deceived.
Not the easiest way to live life, but when I have managed to live up to it I have found it really positive for me.
