Monthly column for youth leaders: the times they aren't a-changing

A pub near to where I live has a sign outside it bearing the legend 'Win big in 98'. At some point last year someone has obviously tried to rub out the 8 and alter the sign to 99, but gave up. The sign is now a staggering two years out of date (or an even more staggering millennium out of date, unless you're one of those pedants who won't celebrate until 2001. By that logic I guess you have to tell your kids that their life didn't properly start until their first birthday.)
