It had a great verse about going up a key, another about singing slow and mournfully, and I *think* finished with, 'Now let's just all dance around and say, "Yeehaa!"', but by that stage we were so much in tears of laughter that the words were quite inconsequential. tag:jonathanbell.blog.co.uk,2006-10-15:/2006/10/13/yo~1217019/#c1918278Cate2006-10-15T14:36:18+02:002006-10-15T14:36:18+02:00That is AMAZING.tag:jonathanbell.blog.co.uk,2006-10-09:/2006/10/04/the_demise_of_sainsburys_basics_chocolat~1187759/#c1875035Anna2006-10-09T11:28:32+02:002006-10-09T11:28:32+02:00Asda and Tesco's do a basics version that is also very good.

Plus rinsing with hot water has the added benefit of drying your dishes much faster, since it appears to evaporate quickly leaving your dishes almost bone-dry after a few seconds. They therefore won't have to be "contaminated" with dirty drying cloths and can be put away into the cupboard speedily. <br> All thought through, you see.tag:jonathanbell.blog.co.uk,2006-09-22:/2006/09/06/washing_up_bowls~1101976/#c1759043Anna2006-09-22T12:34:14+02:002006-09-22T12:34:14+02:00Interesting debate! I agree with Mark, and cannot emphasize enough the importance of rinsing dishes after initial scrub in the bowl. The thing I'm confused about it whether rinsing in hot water is a waste of energy...

You see, their problem is that they aren't using the washing up bowl properly.<br> Since it holds less water, it means you change the water more regularly, thus making the whole process more hygenic, without using an excessive volume of water. It also has the added advantage that you can still drain things down the sink, and of course you can do the rinse into the sink (which ought to be done with very hot water) without changing the temperature of the water in the washing up bowl. I am a great fan of the washing up bowl and would recommend it very highly to make washing up more efficient and more hygenic.tag:jonathanbell.blog.co.uk,2006-09-06:/2006/09/06/washing_up_bowls~1101976/#c1657532mr washy wash2006-09-06T15:09:31+02:002006-09-06T15:09:31+02:00http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/1056364.stm<br> <br> <br> originally used to save water they are now more dangerous than dynamitetag:jonathanbell.blog.co.uk,2006-09-05:/2006/09/04/derby~1096523/#c1654012Helen2006-09-05T23:38:07+02:002006-09-05T23:38:07+02:00I'll send you an email if it will make you feel better.

Althought we got attacked by a mommy moorhen cos I accidently steered the punt into the tree with her nest in. I wasnt very good...in fact I was pretty terrible..I blame it on the fact the pole for punting was at least twice as tall as me...and as such I had to lift off the punt deck each time I pulled it down and just hope I landed on safely again. The trauma of my steering was brief lived and ended in my knocking off of half a fingernail and bleeding everywhere...at which point the Oxford Student felt he should take over before I damaged someone else. Perhaps I should try again...perhaps not...maybe let someone else steer from now on :-)tag:jonathanbell.blog.co.uk,2006-05-23:/2006/05/19/facebook_is_fun~811868/#c1128737Helly2006-05-23T13:11:34+02:002006-05-23T13:11:34+02:00Jon!

I just wrote a long message which failed to send and then went and vanished into thin air (obviously nothing vanishes into thick air), so I have to write it all out again. Ah well, it's not as if I should be revising. Anyway, I have some ideas for your free time. Get a decent book and get reading or (even better) visit www.desiringgod.org and go to the Desiring God Radio Archives section and listen to the series which Piper's just finished entitled 'Olympic Spirituality'. Make sure you get your daily dose of Piper because God is most glorified in you when you are most satisfied in Him.
