September having arrived and the children having returned to school, all meant one thing; summer is officially over and soon the nights would be drawing in; although with the temperature today climbing uncomfortably into the 80
s making it the hottest September day in decades one could have been forgiven for thinking that it was mid-summer. September signals the onset of autumn and autumn ushers in the corporate training season and that means airport departure lounges for yours truly. However, yesterday as I made my way to the airport was no ordinary day; it was of course 9th September, the 5th anniversary of the day they say changed the world. For a moment, it felt a little surreal to be taking the short flight to Eindhoven in Holland.

We are Londoners I continue to be struck by the fact that the world seems to know more about the Gospel than the church to whom God entrusted custody care and control of it. This past Bank Holiday, Hayley & I were pleased to be able to join with some friends at The Notting Hill Carnival. One of our girlfriends owns an apartment on the carnival route. Its one of those chic West London apartments complete with its own balcony affording us the perfect vantage point to view the carnival floats. Two things really spoke to me as we wiled away the afternoon: 1: There was a pennant hung on one of the lamposts from the Mayor
s office which read
We are Londoners.
2: The eclectic nature of the carnival parade. So many nations we represented; from the Caribbean, to South America, to Africa, to the Far East, to Europe. It was a breadth-taking spectacle; a universal street party.
