I am not a body, I am free. For I am as God created me.

(183) I call upon God’s name and on my own.

The name of God is my deliverance from every thought of evil and of sin, because it is my own as well as his.

I am not a body, I am free. For I am as God created me.

What an exciting day! Filming in the morning and early afternoon. Drive to Manchester late afternoon, and my brother’s birthday celebrations in the evening. So many people I haven’t seen in many, many years, some looked unchanged, and some were unrecognisable, ravaged by illness and worries.

It was a day spent in front of one camera or another, and I’m very pleased that one of the producers on the set was interested in doing further work with me. He said I was a natural. There’s something quite unnerving about close up shots, which at the same time is very good for building confidence in having one’s warts and all exposed.

I was happy to be behind the camera at my brother’s do, which took place at the Vermillion Cinnabar in the SportCity area of Manchester. Very OTT décor but fantastic food, and great atmosphere. Their house wine isn’t bad either – so much for my resolution to stay on the water – but at least it was only two glasses. Definitely on the water for the rest of the week now. Have a look at some of the pics.
