08/08/2003 Entry: "Sermon cycle"

I'm sorry to "go on" about this, but it's on my mind. We're having a bit of a heat wave in Britain, and though Swansea is cooled by sea breezes it isn't what you call cold outside. The temperature today is about 25 degrees (that's upper 70's in old money) which is plenty warm enough for me. It has to be said, I'd prefer it to be a bit cooler for cycling. I've had some calls from concerned friends telling me to call it off, but seriously -- how could I do that at this short notice? In any case, I'm all geared up for it now. So I press on, but maybe more slowly, with more stops and drinking more water.

For what it's worth, this is the timetable I'm aiming at:Murton 8am, Horton 9.20, Pitton 10am, Reynoldston 10.45, Mumbles 12.30Brunswick (St Helens Road) 2pm, Wesley Eaton Road (Brynhyfryd) 2.45, Penlan 3.15, Morriston 3.45, Clydach 4.30Sketty 7.00

I realise that to most of the world, these placenames won't mean anything, but for anyone in Swansea you're welcome to join in any of these short services. If you're not in Swansea, I'd value your prayers.The plan is that others will be updating this page through the day tomorrow to report on my progress.

Can't guarantee I'll make it to Murton(!) but will try and put in an appearance later in the day :)alicex

I'm glad to hear you're thinking about the heat Richard! Well be praying and blog checking throughout the day. Don't place being on time above stopping/drinking when you need to though!
