Andy writes….
Honesty is something we all admire and revere as being something of great worth and value in relationships…so long as the honesty of others doesn’t become hurtful or malicious. When someone is honest in a loving, caring way, it builds our trust and faith in them. It shows us that that they are for us and with us, even if sometimes they correct us when we get it wrong. Honesty deepens and strengthens our relationships when it is done in love.
The people of God have a unique relationship as members of the same spiritual family. Scripture clearly tells us to rebuke and correct one another in love. Galatians 6 v 1 says, “Brothers, if anyone is caught in any transgression, you who are spiritual should restore them in a spirit of gentleness.” Any correction should be done out of love and concern for the individual and therefore done gently and with kindness.
In Matthew 18 v 15-17 Jesus describes a process for correcting one another in the church. “If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother. 16 But if he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, that every charge may be estab- lished by the evidence of two or three witnesses. 17 If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector.”
This is a great plan for good, healthy and strong relationships. We may feel uncomfortable with the last part. Treating someone as a “gentile or a tax collector” means treating them as an “outsider” – someone who is not part of the fellowship of faith. It does not mean we should stop loving them, after all Jesus was constantly reaching out to and loving exactly those kinds of people. Like Christ, our goal must always be to build and develop strong, healthy relationships. But if someone persists in sinful, damaging, destructive behaviour, despite correction from the church, then it is clear that they are not committed to reflecting Christ with the goal of holiness, goodness, unity and love. As a church family, let’s seek to encourage, and build one another up in love and faith, for the glory of God. Amen.

Dear Readers,
We were sad to say goodbye to Mark Oliver at Easter when he gave his last sermon in New Haw. We wish Mark and all the family lots of happiness in their new home in Jaywick, Essex. They will be reunited as a family and will be a great asset to their new community.

Claire’s café will be re-opening in mid May and the All Saints’ Ramblers will be walking again on Tuesday 11th May—see Page 9.
The All Saints’ APCM on the 25th April will be featured in the June magazine when we will list the PCC members for the coming year. We send our appreciation to all those who retired this year including Derek Malcolm who served faithfully as an excellent Church Warden. We also thank those who are either continuing to serve or have stepped up as a new PCC member. Thank you, Margaret

Pastoral Letter written by Rev Jenny Phillips
Dear Friends,
Now is the month of maying, When merry lads are playing, Fa, la, la, la,… Each with his bonny lass Upon the greeny grass. Fa la, la, la,….
These words are from an old English folk song celebrating the up- surge of life in the Spring and the romantic enthusiasm that goes with it. I don’t know, as I write during a time when restrictions are still in force, whether we will be able fully to enjoy the pleasures of outdoor life yet, but things are looking hopeful.
We have so much to be thankful for. Following the joy of Easter and the ability to join together in worship and share the Eucharist, we have the knowledge of how many people we have to thank for their selfless sacrifice during the pandemic - the nurses, doctors, all hospital and care home staff, bin-men, police and armed forces….the list is end- less. We also gave thanks last month for the life and dedication of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh and his willing service to this country.
This month sees International Firefighters Day (4th May). These brave men and women frequently risk their lives to serve others in the most dangerous of situations. Our thanks to these heroes in every country.
As I think of the flames of danger, it brings to mind more benevolent flames - the tongues of flame which hovered over the disciples on the Day of Pentecost. We celebrate this outpouring of the Holy Spirit on 23rd May and as we remember the great empowering of the disciples to go out and preach the gospel, I pray that we too may be filled with that same spirit and that we will show forth in all we do the fruits of the Spirit; love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithful- ness, gentleness, and self-control. ..
That’s quite a tall order, but with the help of the Spirit I believe these gifts will grow in us.
Spirit of the living God, fall afresh on us.
In His name, Jenny Phillips

Church Times back page interview quotes—March 2021 Gwen Adshead, Forensic Psychiatrist and Pyschotherapist
I take justice very seriously. I don’t believe in retribution, but I believe in inviting offenders to make good and repair both wrong and harm if they can. In that sense, a justly applied punishment can be redemptive, if it offers a chance to make good. Many prisoners feel it’s just for them to do time for their offence, and conversely are furious when they are unjustly (in their view) either convicted or sentenced.
Making prisons horrible, frightening places, where people are made to feel small and ashamed, is counterproductive, and could make risky people even more risky. Grown-up politicians need to gently advise the citizenry that, although revenge is a natural human feeling, it’s one we have to manage, like other difficult feelings. We have the right to deprive people of liberty to prevent them from harming others, but not the right to treat them badly.
So prisons should be places where there are greater resources for therapy and psychosocial learning. There is so much more that we could do, learning from places like Norway and developing alter- natives to custody.

“Well behaved women seldom make history” Laurel Thatcher Ulrich 9
Thomas was not with the followers when Jesus came. Thomas was one of the twelve. The other followers told Thomas, “We saw the Lord.”
But Thomas said, “I will not believe it until I see the nail marks in his hands. And I will not believe until I put my finger where the nails were and put my hand into his side.”
A week later the followers were in the house again. Thomas was with them. The doors were locked, but Jesus came in and stood among them. He said, “Peace be with you!” Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here. Look at my hands. Put your hand here in my side. Stop doubting and believe.”
Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!” Then Jesus told him, “You believe because you see me. Those who believe without seeing me will be truly happy.” John ch 20 v 24-29

Floating Pennywort—Basingstoke Canal
Each summer you may well have noticed lots of volunteers clearing weed from the canal and piling it up at the side of the bank. Hydro- cotyle Ranunculoides, better known as Floating Pennywort, is a non- native invasive species that can grow up to 20cm per day. It can grow from tiny fragments and will quickly choke a waterway, making it impassable to boats and blocking out light for aquatic vegetation.
Analysis indicates that it takes 126 volunteer hours per kilometre to reduce the impact of this plant. As it is so difficult to remove entirely, it becomes a longer term programme of management. Work to reduce the floating pennywort has been ongoing for at least seven years with volunteers manning the weedcutter, workboat and canoes. They also work from the bank using rakes, grapnels, loppers and secateurs. Rangers in waders and dry suits sometimes also enter the canal to tackle difficult bits.
Pennywort will probably never be eradicated but surveys show that between 2012 and 2016 there was a significant decrease.
On the subject of the Canal— this beautiful Kingfisher is the latest piece of graffiti on the bank of the Wey Navigational Canal under the M25 motorway viaduct.
It’s definitely worth a walk to view it.

Here is a very brief history of The Ramp at St Peter’s Hospital, the information was gleaned from the Chertsey Museum Website.
With the demolishing of The Ramp at St. Peter’s Hospital, a part of history disappeared. Originally built in the 1930s as part of the war effort, each hut had 30 beds, fifteen along each side, with three coke stoves down the middle. The huts were built in two rows up a hill with the strip of land in between them being known as The Ramp.
Patients’ meals were brought over from the kitchens at Botleys Park mansion, and served on a large table in the middle of each ward. One of the huts was used as an operating theatre with room for three operations to be carried out at the same time, and one was reserved for German prisoners of war.
By 1947 the hospital was split from Botleys Park Colony and became St. Peter’s Hospital, its name derived from Chertsey’s Church. Botleys continued to function as a hospital for the mentally ill.
St. Peter’s Hospital expanded from the huts originally built to house the war casualties, and over time more huts were added until they reached the top of the slope. The Ramp, the area in between the two rows of huts, was covered over to make a central internal corridor, but aside from this little else changed until the 1970s.
St. Peter’s has undergone almost continuous expansion and develop- ment to create the state or the art hospital it is today. This modernisa- tion started with the opening of a maternity unit in 1970 which now serves the whole of North West Surrey, but it wasn’t until 1981 that The Ramp ceased to be the main focus of the hospital.

All Saints support various charities and this one is The Eikon Charity:
Lockdown has been very hard for children and especially those who were already struggling – with learning, relationships or mental health. Teachers, psychologists and neuroscientists have warned of the risks of young people being isolated from their peers for such a long time.
In recent months we’ve seen a spike in referrals of children with worsening mental health. We take this extremely seriously. Not only is this an awful thing for a young person to go through, affecting every area of their life, in some cases it can lead to serious self-harm and suicide attempts. The number of children and young people present- ing at accident and emergency departments of Surrey hospitals follow- ing attempted suicide has increased. Tragically, suicide is the leading cause of death in children aged 5-19.
We know that prevention and early intervention are by far the most effective ways to work. That’s why we dedicate so much effort to working with children and young people before – or as soon as concerns arise. But we’re also actively prioritising referrals of children waiting for support from statutory mental health services.
Throughout the crisis we’ve been making every effort to support children and young people remotely with issues relating to their education, family and friends, and their emotional wellbeing – through welfare phone calls and video calls. We now plan to expand our digital delivery and are delighted to say that thanks to Lottery funding we have launched a Virtual Youth club called EikOnline that will enable us to reach out to more children and young people safely. The £100,000 Coronavirus Community Support Fund government grant, distributed by the National Lottery Communities Fund, will also leave a lasting legacy of improved digital capabilities that will benefit children and young people beyond the life of the project.
In August we started a consultation with schools on how we can best support them through and out of the crisis. The number of schools responding was very encouraging. Results of this analysis of schools’ needs will feed into our plans for the autumn term and beyond.
As a founding member of the Surrey Wellbeing Partnership – a group of voluntary sector organisations working together to help improve the wellbeing of Surrey children, young people and families – we’re working to influence the shape of preventative and early intervention support. /cont next page……………... 16
Eikon cont….. The partnership formed in order to bid for a con- tract with the NHS and Surrey County Council to take the lead on de- livering emotional wellbeing and mental health services for children and young people in Surrey. The bid was successful and we are in the final stages of agreeing what specific preventative and early interven- tion services Eikon will be delivering on behalf of the NHS and Surrey County Council.
Those services form part of our overall offer to children, young people, their parents & carers, schools and community groups across the county – a lifeline for children that we’re only able to offer thanks to gifts and grants from generous supporters. - Thank you to All Saints Church for coming alongside us as a valued sup- porter. We could not do what we do without knowing we have the support of our community.
Becky Hughes, Corporate and Community Fundraising Manager The Eikon Charity This is a Zoom quote for these uncertain times:
This was the speaker's finale at the NZ Alpine Garden Society group meeting on Zoom (from Christchurch), quoting Paul Redman, CEO & President, Longwood Gardens, USA. "You must learn to be happy in the fog."

A Prayer for the Duke of Edinburgh
“Well done, thou good and faithful servant: enter thou into the joy of the lord.” (Matthew 25:21)
God of majesty, give rest to your servant Philip who, having served his Queen and Country, has passed from this life, full of years yet strong in spirit. As we give thanks for his life, as Prince and husband, as Consort and family man, we pray that all that he has done may continue to bear fruit in the lives of individuals and the life of this nation, to your honour and glory, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

A few reminders to save your car being stolen or broken into: Leave your car locked A simple mistake that can prove calami- tous: 44% of cars are broken into via an unlocked door. Leave your car well-lit 80% of car crime occurs during the evening or at night. Parking near street lamps or in a busy area can deter thieves. Leave your car empty (or with no items on show) Owners often forget that personal belongings within the car are at as much risk of being stolen as the car itself.

Shân Hughes, New Haw Community Partnered Library A little May trivia: 1. More UK prime ministers have been born in May than any other month, though Theresa May was born in October. 2. No US President has ever died in May. It is the only month that can make such a claim. 3. The first Saturday in May each year is World Naked Gardening Day. 4. In any calendar year, no month begins or ends on the same day as May. 5. One Anglo-Saxon name for May was Tri-Milchi, as dairy cows could be milked three times a day during the month of May.

LOCAL NEWS— The redevelopment of Sheer House in West Byfleet has been given the green light and is hoped to be complete by summer 2024. The empty 1960s concrete office block is being torn down and replaced with a retirement community.
It will be based around 196 apartments for those over 65 - including 47 with one bedroom and 115 with two - some with metal balconies, and with 24/7 care services available on site.
Retirement Villages, who bought the site last June, have been given planning permission by Woking Borough Council. The height of the new buildings, which varies and goes up to seven storeys, was approved in 2017, when some residents worried plans would destroy West Byfleet's "village feel".
Retirement Villages said demolition work had already begun and is expected to take 30 weeks, and they are on track to start construction by the end of this year.
The shops and restaurants, alongside the public square, have been promised alongside the retirement community. Plans also include 67 public car parking spaces, as well as 95 spaces for residents. The public library will be replaced, and Woking's planning committee was told Surrey County Council is looking to temporarily relocate the library while the scheme is being built.

It’s weird being the same age as old people. When I was a kid I wanted to be older…this is not what I expected. Life is like a helicopter. I don’t know how to operate a helicopter. It’s probably my age that tricks people into thinking I’m an adult.

Memories from Childhood
Our Editor has asked if readers would like to produce an article on our childhood upbringing and where we lived.
After my Father left the Army serving 26 years in The Scots Guards we moved from Pirbright Camp to Bisley Camp – not too far away and my parents became Stewards of The North London Rifle Club, right in the heart of the ranges.
I was four with a younger brother and two older brothers. Our nearest village was Brookwood where we attended St Saviours Church and attended Brookwood Junior school. Fortunately my Father had a car as our nearest bus stop was a mile away and no street lights in the dark winter months in the Camp.
Our Rifle Club was very busy from Easter through to October – men would come to shoot on the ranges – rifle and pistol and clay pigeon. Such a buzz and sometimes the men would bring their families to stay in local caravan parks that were set up for them. Members were of- fered accommodation in the Club but no women and/or children.
The bar was men only, we had a huge kitchen, Ante Room , large dining room and wonderful long veranda. Our family had our own separate accommodation attached to the Club. We also had a telephone!
For my parents work was hard – they employed a lot of staff to feed usually 200 men and families for three or four meals a day. Back then in the large kitchen we had one fridge, several ovens, a gas boiler for hot water, lots of sinks, huge larder but no freezers! One can imagine the amount of daily freshly delivered food that had to be prepared, cooked, served and washed up – no dishwashers either! Dad used the Cash and Carry in Byfleet to help stock the huge larder room. Us kids joined the queue of waitresses who were serving the members and we grabbed a plate and put on what food we could!
The underground Armoury was cold and full of lockers and smelt of 3-in-one oil. When I was small I thought it rather spooky but a great place for hide and seek!
The highlight of the summer was the Queens Prize shoot over three weeks and rifle fire could be heard from dawn to dusk. The winner would be taken to all the Clubs carried in a sedan chair and champagne at every stop! /cont next page……... 24
/Memories from Childhood cont…. My elder brother attended to the range markers and targets and us smaller ones were responsible for our used bullet boxes which we put out and collected each evening (we got money for the used shells). Shooters came from all over the World for the Shoot – the Camp was buzzing.
By contrast the winter was a different story – quiet and empty and only the families who lived in the other Rifle Clubs were there. Several hard winters saw us being dug out of huge snow drifts and one winter I remember saw us in the Club for six weeks until help came in the form of tractors to shift the deep snow! However there were a few miles of super places for us to play undisturbed day after day in the Camp.
When my friend Jane invited me to her house I saw how “normal” families lived – a house – standard size rooms and a kitchen, sitting room, a table and chairs to sit and eat. Our Club was large and not in the least bit cosy!
But would I have swopped the life I had in Bisley Camp until I was in my 20’s and left? No – the freedom to play and my pony Fiery, and my bike were an amazing playground – one stage of my life I remember with very happy thoughts.
Jenny Froude May I say a huge thank you to All Saints’ for the delivery of lent lilies (daffodils) for Mothering Sunday with a delightful card message and a few weeks later Easter eggs and again delivered (thank you Phil) and a card also. I know that Michelle was the card maker so thanks Michelle – in these strange days and semi isolation and Zoom only Church it was such a joy to know we were being remembered. Jenny Froude
The First of May I wonder how seeds learn the
If I could stay up late no doubt way, I'd catch the buds just bursting They always know the very day— out; The pretty, happy first of May; And up from every hidden root If I could stay up then, no doubt Would jump a tiny slender shoot; I'd catch the buds just bursting out. Annette Wynne 25
Here are a few headlines from the last PCC meeting held in March
Hall Hire Sub-Committee—Bosco’s was 60% under-used and it was felt this could be developed. A leaflet was going to be pro- duced advertising its facilities. We could have an event in Sep- tember/October. As we have a music licence, we should build on this and target music and arts groups to hire the halls. AV Streaming Sub-Committee—They have looked at the service and what is currently needed including for when we return to ser- vices in church. The plan is to get a team together and train them. Events/Activities Sub-Committee—The four levels of events will be (1) Informal events, no Christian content, about 4 per year. (2) In- formal but introducing a small element of Christian faith, 3 per year. (3) More formal with a greater level of Christian faith, e.g. Alpha, 1-2 per year. (4) Full blown church service of some sort e.g. Spring Harvest, 1-2 per year. Stewardship—There will be a 3-pronged initiative—faith stories, relaunch of house groups and ‘thank you’ to regular givers. Finance and Grants—There was a £12,193 loss last year. We are getting near the baseline of £50,000 and Kirsten had made cash- flow assumptions showing how quickly we might recover. Mission Partner Tithes—we have £4605 to be allocated this year. Sale of Church Property—An estate agent will be approached to market the property when the survey has been done. Looking to the future—We need an attractive church to draw peo- ple in and make them want to see what God is doing for us. The goal is to grow the church, attract people and improve the finances. Relationships need to be built within the community. Date of next PCC meeting—10th May
Verse of the Year 2021:
“Dear Friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.” 1 John 4:7
Church attendance is as vital to a disciple as a transfusion of rich, healthy blood to a sick man. – Dwight L. Moody Prayer is a strong wall and fortress of the church; it is a goodly Christian weapon. – Martin Luther 26
A few riddles from Nicky: (Answers on Page 28) 1. Where can you find cities, towns, shops and streets but no people? 2. What is always in front of you but can’t be seen? 3. I have branches but no fruit, trunk or leaves. What am I? 4. The more of this there is, the less you see. What is it? 5. David’s parents have three sons—Snap, Crackle and what is the name of the third son? 6. Where does today come before yesterday? 7. If you’ve got me, you want to share me; if you share me, you haven’t kept me. What am I? 8. If you’re running in a race and you pass the person in second place, what place are you in? 9. It belongs to you, but other people use it more than you. What is it? 10. What goes all the way around the world but stays in a corner? 11. What begins with T, finishes with T and has T in it? 12. What has to be broken before you can use it?
RECYCLE PRINTER INK CARTRIDGES
Please start saving your old printer ink cartridges to help the church and the environment.
A recycling company pays up to £1.85 for each cartridge received and the second batch sent to them has raised over £21.
There is a container in the main halls foyer but I am also very happy to
collect any cartridges you may have, just give me a ring. Once Claire’s coffee shop is open again there will be a container in there too.
This is a very good opportunity to raise money and help the environment at the same time by diverting old cartridges from landfill. Cartridges can be recycled many times in this way.
Please start collecting and ask friends and neighbours too. Thank you. Sarah Webb (01932 350747)

Rhubarb will soon be coming into season. How about trying this rhubarb and custard cake! 400g rhubarb 50g caster sugar
Cook the rhubarb—Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Rinse rhubarb and shake off excess water. Trim the ends, then cut into little-finger-size pieces. Put in a shallow dish or a baking tray, tip over 50g caster sugar, toss together, then shuffle rhubarb so it’s in a single layer. Cover with foil, then roast for 15 mins. Remove foil. Give everything a little shake, roast for 5 mins more or until tender and the juices are syrupy. Then line a 23cm loose bottomed or springform cake tin. 250g butter, softened plus extra Half teaspoon baking powder for greasing 4 large eggs 150g ready-made custard (you 1 teaspoon vanilla extract can use a pot of Ambrosia) 250g golden caster sugar 250g self-raising flour Icing sugar for dusting
Reserve 3 tbsp of the custard in a bowl. Beat the rest of the custard together with the butter, flour, baking powder, eggs, vanilla and sugar until creamy and smooth. Spoon one-third of the mix into the tin, add some of the rhubarb, then dot with one-third more cake mix and spread it out as well as you can. Top with some more rhubarb, then spoon over the remaining cake mix, leaving it in rough mounds and dips rather than being too neat about it. Scatter the rest of the rhubarb over the batter, then dot the remaining custard over. Bake for 40 mins until risen and golden, then cover with foil and bake for 15-20 mins more. It’s ready when a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean. Cool in the tin, then dredge with icing sugar when cool.

Thanks to Lyn Taylor for these fascinating facts:
Glass takes one million years to decompose, which means it never wears out and can be recycled an infinite amount of times! Gold is the only metal that doesn't rust, even if it's buried in the ground for thousands of years. Your tongue is the only muscle in your body that is attached at only one end. If you stop getting thirsty, you need to drink more water. When a human body is dehydrated, its thirst mechanism shuts off. Zero is the only number that cannot be represented by Roman nu- merals. Kites were used in the American Civil War to deliver letters and newspapers. The song Auld Lang Syne is sung at the stroke of midnight in al- most every English-speaking country in the world to bring in the new year. Drinking water after eating reduces the acid in your mouth by 61 percent. Drinking a glass of water before you eat may help diges- tion and curb appetite. Peanut oil is used for cooking in submarines because it doesn't smoke unless it's heated above 450F. The roar that we hear when we place a seashell next to our ear is not the ocean, but rather the sound of blood surging through the veins in the ear. Nine out of every 10 living things live in the ocean. Airports at higher altitudes require a longer airstrip due to lower air density. The tooth is the only part of the human body that cannot heal itself. A comet's tail always points away from the sun. Caffeine increases the power of aspirin and other painkillers, that is why it is found in some medicines. The military salute is a motion that evolved from medieval times, when knights in armour raised their visors to reveal their identity. Strawberries and cashews are the only fruits whose seeds grow on the outside. Avocados have the highest calories of any fruit at 167 calories per hundred grams 30
REST IN PEACE
1 March Audrey Tatro, formerly Grange Nursing Home 18 March Elaine Smith, formerly of Byfleet Road
Our thoughts and prayers are with their families and friends at this time.
Elaine was a loyal member of our All Saints’ congregation and served for many years on both the Sides and Coffee rotas. Elaine was always friendly and caring, we will miss her.
This is another poem from the collection saved by Carol French’s mum:
We met and married a long time ago, Worked for long hours when wages were low. No TV, no wireless, no bath. Times were hard. Just a cold water tap and a walk up the yard. No holidays abroad, no posh carpets on floors, But we had coal on the fire and we didn’t lock doors.
Our children arrived, no ‘pill’ in those days, And we brought them up without state aid. They were quite safe to go and play in the park, Then old folk could go for a walk after dark. No vallium, no drugs, no LSD, We cured most of our ills with a good cup of tea.
But if you were sick you were treated at once - No form to fill in and come back in six months. No vandals, no muggings, there was nothing to rob, And we were quite rich with a couple of bob. People were happier in so many ways. Milkmen and paper boys used to whistle and sing. A night at the pictures was one mad fling.
We all get our share of troubles and strife, And we just have to face it, that’s the pattern of life. But now I’m alone and I look back through the years, I don’t think of the bad times, the troubles and tears. I remember the blessings, our home and our love, And that we shared them together. I thank God above. 31
GUILDFORD CATHEDRAL
Over Holy Week and Easter weekend we were delighted to be able to welcome congregations to our services. I’d like to thank everyone who worked to getting us to that point, the Cathedral Clergy, Choir, Virgers, Servers. Stewards and the myriad of behind the scene staff who do so much that isn’t seen to help with services. The Cathedral Choir is now on a well earned break and we look forward to welcoming them back in May.
All Services are advertised on the Cathedral Diary on the website. All services will be broadcast with links to the live stream detailed on the diary entry. During the week we are delighted to be able to welcome a congregation to our weekday morning services on Tuesdays – Fridays. Some people will not yet want to attend the Cathedral in per- son, so we will continue to stream these services via our YouTube Channel. Please check the Cathedral Diary for times of services as they can change.
The Cathedral Shop is open Tuesday – Saturdays, 10am – 2pm. Our Shop welcomes people back to see the exciting new stock that has arrived for the Spring.
We would encourage everyone to continue to follow the regulations in place, both when at the Cathedral and elsewhere; we are all in this situation together and every one of us has a vital role to play to continue to protect ourselves and others. Please continue to show kindness and understanding to others and as we continue living with the current conditions together.
The Very Reverend Dianna Gwilliams, Dean of Guildford

Thanks to John Sales for these: Don’t be worried about your smartphone or TV spying on you. Your vacuum cleaner has been collecting dirt on you for years. Marriage Counsellor: Your wife says you never buy her flowers. Is that true? Me: To be honest, I never knew she sold flowers.
