I'm ready for my close up

Char_green_me_blueAfter two days of intense meetings I've just had the craziest 24-7 afternoon. The wonderful Charlotte 'Dell-Boy' New has developed a new range of 24-7 T-shirts and Hoodies and in rebellion to the rediculously hot 24-7 office we ran away with Matt Terrace this afternoon for a photo shoot darling...

What are we here for?

Circular_saw_1I’m sitting in Pete Greig’s lounge and my brain is running at 100mph. The International Team I’m part of are taking two days to prepare for 24-7’s Round Table, the one time in the year when 24-7 Leaders gather Internationally to steer the movement for the coming year…

Milking it

Images_18I think my 24th Birthday has been my most drawn out Birthday to date. I've truly managed to milk it for all it's worth! Beginning with proxy Birthday with my Family in Kos and ending in a fabulous gig in London I've had five days of pampering, spoiling and socialising. It's good to be 24...

The Drawing of the Three & The Stand

Images_17I arrived back in in the UK on Sunday morning and was greated by the gorgeous Stephen Harding looking quite scrummy with a freshly shorn head and new clothes. Kos was a wonderful oasis in a busy August and I am very grateful for the rest...

Beach Bum

Salutations from Kos!

Carla_3I'm typing this from a noisy sports bar come pool room come internet cafe on the out skirts of the main town on the Island of Kos, Greece.  It's about 20 degrees this evening; I've spent the last three days horizontal in the sun and my skin is turning a wonderful golden colour without a smidgen of sun burn in sight...

How am I?

Trundle_family_july_03_2I was sitting in the City of London Boiler Room on Monday when I over heard a most disturbing thing... Phil Togwell was speaking to Andrea (lovely new UK prayer support lady) when he said... "If you wade through all the film, book and TV reviews on Carla's blog, sometimes you actually get to find out about her..." I was most perplexed. I don't think he gets it at all...

Half Blood Prince & The Horse & his Boy

Images_16After a week of Potter cold turkey I pounced on the half bood prince with an enthusiasm I usually reserve for Star Wars. After months of anticipation it was in my hands and I whipped through it like Mansell through Brans Hatch...
