so this week not much excitement but we have a few new investigators one that the other Elders in our ward gave us because they were framers and they called them up and they had moved to our area and were interested in us coming by so on Tuesday we had a lesson with them and then the rest of our week has been pretty normal we have transfers on the 5th of November and the 17th of December I will probably be stay for at leat one more and then I might go but I'm not sure on that. We have 8 in our district all elders we have 4 sisters in our whole zone. I will up date you when we get back about everything else because we have to go back to Burton because we have been in Lichfeild so update you later.

I don't know the Merril girl but the elders in my district know her she should be coming home soon is what they said. they also say that she is awesome. well some bad news though for today from between the time that I last emailed and now our appointment for today cancelled so that stinks but we will get through though

So nothing happening for my birthday we had cake but that was it and ya I do feel a bit older. The investigators are sort of coming we did have the lesson on Monday and that went alright but we haven't been able to meet with them since but it has been a pretty good week we have spent a lot of time getting John moved from his flat into the new house that he is renting as well as we went and visited a few of our members that have been sick
We met Shannon a couple of weeks ago and we set up an appointment to meet with her and her friend Emily and it seemed to go well but they have cancel on us a couple of times now for more lessons at the last minute so we will see were that goes, and that couple we met a month ago has finally set up a time with us to come over so that should be good. and tell dad that they fixed the mold on our wall finally.
 
Love you and pray for you always

So nothing much happened this week it has been a very rainy week for us so there have not been very may people out and personally if it wasn't my calling to be out finding I would be huddled inside probably watching TV and sitting by the heater because it is cold outside already. Most of our finding has been for not this week but there was one girl that we met that we have an appointment with tonight but it is in the park and its raining so it may not happen unless we can find a member to come with us so we can move it inside somewhere. but we will see. 
Saturday night we were able to watch Saturday morning conference session live then yesterday we watched the priesthood session in the morning then we had lunch and then had the Saturday afternoon put up on the screen. then we waited till 5 to watch the Sunday morning session live then we went home and we have not seen the Sunday afternoon session. I was a bit bummed out that we didn't get to here Elder Bednar speak he is one of my favorites but I will get to read it in the ensign so that will have to work.
So after we watched the Saturday afternoon session we watched the work report which is kind of like the stuff that we get back home in between the sessions and the same channel back home. we heard about the "Meet the Mormons" and the different things that the church has been doing through out the world this year since the April conference. So we are not completely out of the loop with everything and it was cool to see the difference we are making throughout the globe. That is about it for me this week I am praying for some new investigators this week.
I have a question for you and kind of for grandpa as well. What area of England are we from what area does the Poll name come from. People keep asking me where the name is from and I can't tell them because i don't know myself.
Love you and pray for you always Elder Poll
