Weekend stuff
Just came home from spending the afternoon at a new leisure centre that has been inaugurated in Gibraltar. That place rocks! With an ice skating rink, cinema, bowling alley, video games arcade and two or three restaurants there’s fun for all the family in a controlled and safe environment. Gibraltar’s youth desperately needed a place […]

Sunday wrap-up
Sunday service was awesome! There was a great anointing on the worship, with the tangible presence of God in the hall. With summer in full swing here, we experience theusual summer dip in attendance with people being away on vacation, but the “thin on the ground” issue did not detract at all […]
Re-engineering my rhythm
During my weeklong “rest and recovery” vacation, I received the following clear word from the Lord:
Do more by doing less
As I explained here, before leaving for the vacation I was pretty much experiencing burnout. I was constantly exhausted to the point of returning home from work almost numb with tiredness. […]
Regaining my vibe
I’m back from vacation! It was awesome - well as awesome as lying beside a swimming pool all day and taking in the sun’s rays, can be. I managed to read a book by Dean Koontz which was cool, and the boys had a really cool time participating in all the activities […]
Signing-off for a week.
This blog will be closed to the public for a week. Yes folks, I am taking my gang on vacation to the beach in Spain for a week and shall not be blogging.
In the meantime I would really appreciate your prayers. I have seen how responsibilities at work have been mounting, and I […]
Heard around the Baw household….

I’m (not really) lovin’ it!
Sitting at McDonald’s at the moment where my kids have just devoured two happy meals plus a burger each! We have now graduated from the restaurant to the PlayPlace where Aaron and Eli are letting their ADD loose on the slides, and I am reading “A diary of Revival” the centenary edition of the […]
Finshed my last exam!
It is 12:45pm and I have just left the exam room ….for the last time! Yes folks studies are over! Finished! Done! I have not slept all night, and do not have enough grey matter available to write anything remotely coherent at this point, so please excuse me while I go hibernate […]

Eli: Dad I had a dream and I saw you in it.
Dad: Really? Was it a nice dream?
Eli: Yes - did you see me?
Dad: Ermm … no baby I cannot see you ‘cos it is a dream.
Eli: Yes but you were there - I saw you!
Dad: (Trying to explain) You can see me but I […]
Mid-week meetings.
We are currently having two mid-week cell meetings - Tuesdays and Thursdays. On Tuesdays we have a cell group that meets in homes in Gibraltar - we rotate home every week so for example I host the cell meeting once every four weeks. This group is now approaching the size where it is getting too […]
Me: “Aaron we really need to work on your Spanish”
Aaron: (Holding his head) “Dad, there isn’t any space in here right now for two languages!”
Happy Birthday Leigh!!!
Spent Saturday afternoon hanging out with my immediate and extended family for my nephew Leigh’s birthday celebration. He is one cool kid! He’s even a bit of a martial arts guy!
Come to think of it ….my family is pretty amazing! Quite a gang. More than a family, it gets to be like […]
The Gibraltar Regiment Open Day
Had a blast at the Royal Gibraltar Regiment Open Day on Saturday morning.. The Royal Gibraltar Regiment is our own local regiment - part of the British Army. This was their open day and we thought that we would honour them by visiting. They are also deployed in the major theatres of war like Afghanistan, […]
A couple of weeks of bliss!
After my exam, I can now look forward to a couple of weeks break from my studies whilst I wait for the next course to land in my mailbox. For two weeks, I shall accompany these guys every day to the beach that you see on the left. Yes that is the beach that […]
Disneyland Resort Paris

Aaron’s Poem: “The Whisper of the Rain”
The smooth clear rain,
Tapping on the road,
The nice clean rain,
Running down the lane,
If you want to know,
It goes down the drain.

First Post is past!
Well, it has been a while since I updated the blog. I finally finished and submitted my first assignment on my studies. This assignment dealt with property valuations. Three Chartered Surveyors at work have reviewed this assignment, and they found it to be of a good standard. I should have feedback […]
Turning my puff into buff.
First day of the week and boy am I tired! My good friend Steve Doerter has been encouraging me to get back in shape – and oh my do I need it! Currently weighing 110 KG / 242 Lbs I have really let myself go.
I feel inclined to follow a composite of Bill […]
