Glad to hear everything is still doing good over there. Good to hear that you all are keeping busy. And happy fathers day! Hope you had a good one. Justin's going to love having a job (or at least the part where you get your own spending money from it). $14 an hour sounds good! And he'll love being able to drive. Don't worry once he gets his license he'll practice a lot more. I miss driving. You can sell my car though, I don't like the idea of it not being used for so long and someone else may really want an old toyota. Besides, I still really want a mini and it would be a good chance to have a new car. I'm not expecting you to buy one but keep an eye out for one for me. And tell justin that he doesn't have to give in to peer pressure. It's okay if he likes big trucks but he should be more open minded. Maybe he needs to watch some topgear. That might help. But if he's willing to pay for his own gas maybe he can find out for himself if it's worth it.
There's not much I can tell you this week as my companion and I have been sick for a collective two and a half days. I'm slowly getting familiar with the members here. I've been able to meet some of them at church but it's a lot easier to get to know them if we meet with them personally and we've only had one dinner appointment since I arrived here. I think that's where we got the sickness. We thought it was food poisoning from something we ate the night before but apparently the family we visited all got the same illness as us. We think it was just a bug. So apart from being stuck in our flat for a few days we also had a lot of plans cancelled so we mostly did street contacting and knocking. The area is a nice area but it's taking longer to adjust because I've hardly met any of the members formally and I've only met once with the investigators that I know of. I want to go through the area book to get a good idea about what people we are teaching. Unfortunately this aria book looks like another out of date one.
My new shoes are holding up well. We still do a lot of walking in this area but not as much as my last one. I like Romsey so far. I still haven't got grandma's package yet because the zone leader were late to "district leader council" or something so I'll get it at zone training on the 18th. I'd better send you some pictures now. This first one is of the abbey from our flat. I think we'll go there today for more pictures.
We went to this nice milkshake shop and they had hundreds of flavours. Here's two of the more interesting ones...
