Part 4: The Last KM School
by Amazing inpart 4: the last km school .
the average jw elder participates in extra exclusive activities over and above the rank & file jw: among them are the judicial committees, private meetings with the circuit and district overseer on various official occasions, possession of the secretive flock book, and kingdom ministry school.. of all these, the least frequently experienced is km school.
it is not all that exciting, because much of what is covered is admonition about what most jws already know that elders are supposed to be doing: examples in field service, regular shepherding calls, meeting preparation and attendance, study with the family, etc.

Info re: Removal from KHs, assemblies.....
by TheApostleAK inthe attendants would probably look to an elder for permission to remove him.. i don't know about overseas, but in australia they can't remove you from meetings cos if they touch you then that is considered assault.
before last convention jw's were instructed repeatedly not to touch anyone who caused trouble at meetings/conventions but instead to surround the person(s) and call the police.
the speaker doing the talk in the service meeting virtually yelled the "do not" part.. ps in the 40's there was a convention in adelaide and "apostates" rushed the stage and as they rushed the stage a j.w.

Ever been counciled for doing a craft??
by lydia incoming from central pa - i get to see lots of quilts - and i have started to quilt myself - although i recieved lots of council about spending the long hours alone on a quilt ( the brother apparently never heard the words "quilting bee" ) i finally quit doing them for a while because of the pressure i was getting..... finnally when i realized that i needed to do some form of craft as a stress reducer ( from all the pressure from the borg) i told the elders where to go - and also said " i'd be happy to quit quilting - are you going to pay for the pyschiatri help and the meds they may prescribe??
this is therapy for me!!".
it shut him up for a bit.. .

British coinage
by thewiz inok you brits, i have looked this up before, but can't remember where, and only for the "legal" terms.. you have terms/slang for your coinage/bills that i can never seem to remember or get right.. can you list first the real name for denomination (lowest to highest), then the slang terms you use for that denomination, and then the american $ equivalent?.
what's a quid?
is it the same thing as a shilling?.
