Hawks were beaten yesterday, and in all honesty they were beaten quite convincingly (29-13), by a side that weren't all that good themselves. Whilst there were positives, particularly the performance in the last 20 minutes when we came back from 29-3 down - scoring a couple of good tries, if we don't improve quickly it could turn into a bit of a slog. We are playing the other newly promoted team next week, but they won yesterday so will be coming to Glasgow on a real high.
As I suspected would be the case, watching wasn't easy and I am tempted to make myself available for next week. But to do that I need to be able to run much more pain free than I could earlier this week, and realistically I think it might be a week too early. But we'll see.
Today, at church, is another first for me - and there have been a few with GV away over the summer. This time it's leading a dedication of one of our babies. I am struck by the huge privilege that this is, and am actually a little nervous - thoughts of Rowan Atkinson in Four Weddings and a Funeral spring to mind! We also have one of the patron's of the church preaching at both services. He is a top guy (we actually met up with him and his wife while we were away in Cyprus earlier in the summer) who now works for this organisation (I think...). It will be good to see them both again, and to hear him preach at both of our services.
