In this brief but entertaining episode, we are in coronavirus lockdown conversation with podcast host Pastor Nick Whittome’s own middle son Simon!
Simon talks about what lockdown has meant for him with school closing in his GCSE year, and going forward on predicted grades rather than having to sit a whole lot of exams.
He has started his own small farm in the garden, with Greek cress, spicy Arabic broccoli and radishes, which he reports has turned out to be easier than he was anticipating, surprisingly!
Simon is taking Drama, Music and Maths, and he recounts some of the drama productions he has been in, and shares about some drama performances in the east end of London.
He shares a great impression of his English teacher Mr Laverty, and reveals a talent for a scary deep voice. Simon also plays us a bit of Scott Joplin on his keyboard.
Simon’s favourite story from the bible is when Herod is eaten by worms; and also the transformation of Saul into Paul on the road to Damascus.
He shares about making his A-level decisions on the basis that he both loves these subjects and he feels capable with these.
He also tells listeners about the general superiority of the colour orange, which he chose for his room.
Simon also shares about a family holiday in Pembrokeshire which was particularly memorable, as a result of severe storm – he subsequently wrote about this storm in an entrance exam for a school transfer.
Simon closes in prayer for everyone listening. Thank you Simon – it was fun!
