Work
This week I have been loaned to the IT department (seeing as the rest of my department (software development not IT) ) have gone off on their hols).
As such, I have taken on a few of the small projects that have yet to be taken care of in the web and IT departments. This doesn’t make them any less valuable, mind you, there just are always more projects that need doing than there is time to do them in.
So I have been fixing and polishing up bits on the Wycliffe Canada website, and writing a little program to keep an eye on the temperature of our server room so that we know if it is likely to catch on fire (which is never a good thing).
Oh, and also adding a bit of ‘flavor’ to the Wycliffe website’s error messages.

Error 9012: Something has gone terribly wrong with Andy!
Stampede
Last week was Calgary’s “Stampede” week. Which of course meant lots of stampeding around, or something like that… Anyway, We (the international students group) spent the weekend taking it all in – or as much of it as possible – it’s a huge event.
Let me just show you some photos:

Parades!

Dancing horses!

Dancing people!
And fairgrounds, and military exhibitions, and all sorts of stuff. Most of which involves hundreds of horses – I guess that’s why they call it Stampede.
Where did the jacket & tie come from? They weren’t in your case when you left.
That’s some error message!
PPPPPPPPPPPPAAAAAAAAAXXXXXXXOOOOOOOO

Hey! I’m loving the Wycliffe photo!!! Error message indeed…
Just got back from holiday in Cornwall and opened your blog to see your picture, what a sight, where did you get the gear or is it standard dress in Canada? It sounds as though you are well into work and your free time seems to be spent having a great time. When can I visit. Will email you later in month. Alan.
Great photos Andy! Keep up the entries - without you around I can only manage to connect from time to time….ah!! but it’s good to find out what you’re up to! God bless Christine
Pictures and script are both fascinating. Keep it flowing Andy. Can’t wait for the August edition.
Now which photo shall I show the church? - the suit? - or the hat?
i’ve spent the last few months meaning to get onto your blog thing. . . been a bit busy . . . .
bit worried about everyone else reading my rather dull message!
fab account and photos - gives a really good idea of what you’re up to.
continue to enjoy and work hard . . . . might actually write again before/if you come back . . . . .
will certainly pray that you would know Gods leading
