Yesterday we attended a craft class in town, candle making. I talked Rick into coming along, and because he is such a good sport...sure enough...he came! We had such a good time, met lots of folks and each came home with a hand full of candles! We wanted to do this in order to get out and meet people where we normally wouldn't.
One women in particular was great - Dominic, she is from France originally but has lived here in Ballymena for the last 21 years. Dominic has two children, and we have invited her to come along to the Hallelujah Party the 30th October. She teaches French at a local secondary school (high school) Ballymena Academy. It's quite interesting, in the fact that she and her children actually live on the grounds of the school! There are three homes on the grounds. One is for the Head Master (Principal), another for the Grounds Keeper and the third I'm not sure who its for, but Dominic and her family love living there. She said that she actually has 3 gardeners!
