Never realised it was so easy to join the blogsphere.
Hello everybody now this born again technophobe has sussed out how to start there's no stepping me.
Many thanks to Joanna Bogle's article in this week's Catholic Herald for getting me off my cyber backside to joing the ranks of the bloggers.
Just in case you are wondering Tony Abbot is not my real name but is inspired by the desert Father St Antony the Abbot.
If I find a really good link I will post one. Suffice to say he lived as a hermit in the desert and prayed a lot about the state of his world.
I can't pretend to match him but at least there's an inspiration. I too live alone but in an urban desert - wild jackels don't roam near my cave. Instead it's the local hoodies ready to nick your car at the drop of a shoulder. My neighbourhood is a mixture of students, pensioners, families and some residents who wouldn't be out of place in Shameless. Our world is in desperate need of those who will pray for it - ultimately it's the only thing that matters. Even if you have never tried it before just ask God to show ou that He is real (sorry feminists - this is God the Father wwe're talking about).
I'm getting a bit sleepy plus I'm expecting a mate to phone any minute so I'll sign off. See yoh soon.
