With the family I had a nice 6 mile walk around Durham. Just an exercise walk. We saw one heron and there were no cormorants on the weir. The giant hog weed had shot up since we were last there and the whole walk is a lot more greener. The army were out in Durham centre with a 10 metre 4 sided climbing wall and it was good to see them letting everyone know about and getting the kids involved with an important aspect of our national life. I know that Bahai's cannot elect to serve in the forces because they are primarily for national defence but I also know that Bahai's will be able to serve in any international force that eventually arises because that will be protecting and in some cases implementing the will of a democratically elected world government.

When we got back Miles and I had a great discussion and mutual demonstration with pencils and paper for the algebraic justification for a step being missed out of the formula for geometric sequences in the A Level specification.He's a bright lad and sometimes I think I'm in there as well! Star Trek and maths this evening and some great rock music. Good day.
