A Course in Miracles is a remarkable book that lays out an entire spiritual path. It describes a philosophy of forgiveness where fear and guilt can be overcome through miracles. Miracles are defined as maximal expressions of love that remove the blocks we all have to the awareness of love’s presence. A Course in Miracles is not an end in itself. We wish to inform people of its existence but we do not seek membership. Our personal experience is that study of ACIM has helped us in our life. We the …

Less than 20% of people who purchase personal development books get past the first chapter. Less than 1% of people actually use the material in these books to improve their lives in the way that they intended to use it. I am sure we can all relate to this? Well I certainly can! Is it the book that didn't work or we didn't make it work?! :) For the last few years I have been working with a group of incredibly committed individuals to understand why this is and put solutions in place for us all to …

So I'm not exactly a fountain of trivia knowledge... however, I really enjoy a nice relaxed evening, a couple of drinks and getting to know new people over a little friendly competition. Suggestions welcome for meetup locations. As team sizes are usually restricted to around 6 people, as the group grows it would be great to have lots of events going on - if you'd like to organise a quiz-focused get together let me know! I'm aiming to organise a quiz night at least every fortnight. If you want to …

STOP PRESS: - The group was set up in 2008 by The Exchange Church, and we've always been looking to make sure its being helpful at what its intended to do - welcoming newcomers to town, and helping people meet and make friends. The group responsible for the running of Waffle have decided that after 4 years, its time to take stock, and hold on any upcoming events from the end of April 2012 onwards. This is not a group closure - rather a breather to have a decent think, and make sure we're doing e …

Do you want to watch scifi, fantasy and comic based films with people who have been bursting for the film to come out for months on end, just like you? Do you consider a big part of film watching enjoyment the discussion immediately after about how accurate/realistic/well adapted the film was? (Even if it's just on IMDB?) Let's face it, sometimes our loved ones just don't get what makes X-men, Hobbits, Spock or Whedon so awesome. You could persuade them to watch it with you then spend the time …

This group is for local people who want to enjoy activites locally, as well as further afield.

I would hope that this g …
