Piccadilly Circuitous...

Bet you thought the statue in Piccadilly Circus was called Eros.  But you’d be wrong. That’s just one of the many, many surprises uncovered when a group from the nearby St James’ Chuch set out for some serious wandering on their first Street Wisdom.   I understand most churches celebrate Lent in a traditional, rather sombre way.

Street Wisdøm!

I have pretzels and box wine. Take me to your artistic leader.

Friday dawned ominously cloudy and cold in Stockholm.  We thought we were in for Sleet Wisdom.  But by the time we gathered at the ultra hip Urban Deli at 1330 the sun was pushing through the clouds and as we started the Tune Up, church bells (synchronistically) started ringing.

Berlin Wisdom – 21st March 14

Street Wisdom Berlin

We held our first German Street Wisdom in Berlin last Friday. It rocked. Many thanks for Karen for bringing together such a fabulous group of women. It was also the first one that my wife has attended and therefore much was at stake. When we were chatting it was obvious that the standards were high, […]
