Be gentle with me...

I'm new to this blogging stuff!
This is a chance to talk about one of my favourite subjects - me!
It will be full of ramblings about my family, my faith and my spiralling out of control hobby of card making. So if that doesn't interest you, turn off ....NOW

If you are staying - welcome.
My name is Lythan.
Sigh.
Yes it's a funny name.
Yes, its Welsh.
No, most people have never heard of it either.
And yesterday for the first time in about 25 years when I was being introduced to someone, she thought her friend was saying "listen" with a lisp and got quite cross about not being told my name...
This is me

I am 40 years old.

still look a bit younger than that but no longer asked for ID when I go to the pub.

I work as a Minister in the United Reformed Church

http://www.urc.org.uk/

I serve two Churches in Harold Hill and Romford. Postal address Essex but also in London.

Cue for my favourite Essex girl joke.

An Essex girl was in an accident. the paramedic said "Where are you bleeding from?"

"Romford"

I'll tell you about my husband, kids, dog, fish, chickens and tadpoles later.

After all - how do you keep an idiot in suspense?
