So we just got the blip from
President Jordan. As of last night I'm going to be staying right where I am. I
probably am going to be here in Luton for 6 months, so I guess I should have
been prepared for it. Elder Affleck is leaving me and going to a funny place
called Huntingdon. It’s one of the furthest areas from London in the mission
but he gets a car, lucky guy. So tomorrow I'll be helping him carry his stuff
to the train station and getting my new companion.
Kind of funny but I'll be getting
another Scotsman. His name is Elder Jameson and apparently he is a really good
missionary, super solid guy. I've only met him once or twice at Zone Conference
and such, so I don't know too much about him. I'll send you a video and you
guys can get to know him.
So far today I went and played
basketball at St. Albans while my companion and his buddy Elder Fisher went and
bought expensive shirts from a company called T.M. Lewin, which makes ridiculously
nice stuff. Elder Affleck almost has all his stuff to go home with so he has
just been blowing money left and right here. I'm just trying to hold on to mine
so it doesn't go flying out of my hands :P After that we met up with our other
Elders from Dunstable just down the road and went to lunch with them at a super
posh all you can eat Buffet. It was on a cheaper menu because it was during a
lunch time special so I didn't have to pay too much, thank goodness, but it was
a really cool experience. Lots of neat food from all over the world. So that
was fun.
Now all I have to do is survive
till the sunshine decides to come out, which would be really nice. Things are
going just fine and I'm really interested to see who this Elder
Jameson is. From what I hear, I think things will work out just fine. I
was also really impressed by that video of Whitney that you sent. Holy Cow,
she's actually pretty good now. My companion was blown away by that just to let
you know. Looks like good things are still happening over in Utah.
I'm finally getting used to how
England works, but by the time that I will actually be used to it I'll have to
go back to Utah anyway :P All good though. I hope you guys are taking care and
I'll talk to you again soon.
Love your son and brother,
Elder Bradley Smith
