About Me
- Name: Chris Tilling
- Location: London, United Kingdom
I am New Testament Tutor for St Mellitus College and St Paul's Theological Centre, London. Less well known is that I am also the original writer of the now famous song “Beans, beans, good for your heart…”, and inventor of the “you must have fallen out of the stupid/ugly tree” repertoire of insults. I am the main proponent of the Human Faecal Matter for Brains Opening in chess (actually not what I wanted to call my brilliant and original opening Knight manoeuvre 1.Na3, 2.Nc1), and I also claim to have independently discovered the haiku™ poetry form (© Copyright Chris Tilling 2007) without any help from the Japs. My blog, Chrisendom, is primarily occupied with biblical and theological themes – especially those Apostle Paul shaped, but I try as best as I can to squeeze in a decent amount of inappropriate baloney on the way.

At least your last name isn't Lemieux. *sigh*
does that mean I'm actually more British than you are...?
My family crossed the pond to Canada 1900ish.
At least you're not English...
Bienvenue à la maison mon cher.
Hey "Frenchie", ah c'mon that can't be that bad, my dad's mother's side is French, but I NEVER admit that, so you did not actually read this, k?
bonjour mon ami!!!!!
Dude! I'm more British than you too! My Dad crossed the pond in his youth and my mom, well she's Scottish stock.
My french tutor was telling me how much of the english language was imported from France, so I informed him that at least we figured out how to pronounce the words! :-)

Jean, you know I was only joking I hope?!
