Take A Seat

Unaccustomed as I am to public speaking - did some today - at the Worship Plus Service held at the local Congregational Church

At various points in the service took a seat at the front - and was then interviewed by the Minister - friend H - the subject being Bus Pass Walking - explained about the history - reason for choosing the routes - planning required - the Calderdale and Kirklees branches were mentioned and the benefits - exercise - friendship and camaraderie - an increased awareness of people and surroundings - and an uplifting feeling when each route is completed - was told afterwards I was both interesting and amusing - even got some laughs

Later went into Keighley to collect R’s glasses - part of the shopping centre has been turned into a beach - refrained from taking another seat
