Read More Take A Load OffSo today was a packed, packed, packed day. Community Cohesion Day featuring pupils from Mitchell High School.

Read More From A Different Angle – On A Different PathNo you won’t recall because you haven’t read the review yet, but when you do read the review, you’ll discover that one of the prayer points we want people to hold is for Slumdog Millionaire to win the Oscar for Best Film.
