Sunday, 3 March 2013. Farset, and home. Day 9 and 10. Ruth at Farset was already cooking for a crowd of 45 youth, and offered to give us dinner (chicken curry, rice, lasagna, roast potatoes, salad) for 6 pounds. Who could turn down an offer like that? Links to this post. Day 7 and 8. Http:/ www.charterni.com. Links to this post. Saturday, 2 March 2013. Giants and small boys. Day 6 and 7. We then headed off for a quick trip to the Giant’s Causeway in the Corrymeela bus, with Peter driving. Furth...Peter d...

the corrymeela diaries: February 2015
http://marthaemartin.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 24 February 2015. Christmas cactus part 2. I am no different. Links to this post. Sunday, 22 February 2015. Passing Paul around the room. We began our last morning at Corrymeela “passing Paul around the room” … with “Paul” as an imaginary large ball. Fast, slow, loud, soft. It helped lighten the mood of heaviness from the deep sharing the night before, and also helped us create a new circle with everyone fully present and ready to begin again. Links to this post. I thought of Underworld when we ...

Institute for the Study of Conflict Transformation and Social Justice. Ceasefire Celebrations: Alas Not For Me. August 29, 2014. 31st August 1994 should have been a day that we all should have been happy about. The IRA called a ceasefire that would eventually lead to our ‘peace’. The killing and bloodshed would be coming to an end. There would be no more people, like me, put into wheelchairs. I look back now and see the two 1994 ceasefires as significant. As things to celebrate. As seeds of hope ...Miles...

Thursday, September 28, 2006. Yes, I have joined the millions of wealthy, jilted, scammed, righteously angry, guilty, innocent, and just plain litigious people.I have my very own lawyer. Of course, if I did give he or she a horrible name, perhaps said progeny might grow up to become a non-profit lawyer.battling it out for the little guy on legal aid. That wouldn't be so bad. Hmmm. Little Imogen will thank me, someday. Posted by Nikki @ 9:36 PM. Wednesday, September 27, 2006. Our Dartboard of Wrath. Once ...

Nikki's Bent: October 2006
http://nikkisbent.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 27, 2006. A Hokie in the Creggan. So I'm sitting at my meeting today, and suddenly a man walks in wearing a maroon shirt with orange writing. I know that awful color combination! Sure enough, it was a Virginia Tech. Shirt I didn't get to drill him on it, but apparently he was there just a few months ago. Small world. I'm in Edinburgh at for a long weekend. So you won't be hearing from me for a while. Posted by Nikki @ 12:25 AM. Wednesday, October 25, 2006. Coffee when the cheap. I’m still...

Nikki's Bent: November 2006
http://nikkisbent.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 08, 2006. Bye Bye Crummy Rumy. For the first time in as long as I can remember, I smiled over news out of the US. Vying for the biggest jig-of-jubilation factor are:. 1) The End of Rumsfeld. 2) The First Woman. Speaker of the House! Today offered me renewed faith in the peoples collectively known as "Americans" (misnomer though it is) and the political process in which some of us participate. I would like to think that the election results demonstrate that We The People. Such musings ...
