Choices, choices

Just as a matter of interest, could you advise me which of two meetings I should go to, which clash in my diary. Should I go to the Property Committee or should I go to the Knitting Group?

Please give reasons for your answer.

    Knitting of course. “Property Committee” sounds boring,whereas surely Jesus would have chosen the knitting if faced with such a dillemma.

    Property, because knitting sounds like you’ll have hands too otherwise-occupied for a glass.

    Puhleeeese….if knitting interfered with drinking do you think it would have persisted this long??? Indeed, there is a long tradition of ‘knit one, drink two’ clubs. Can property offer such fun?

    Oh, I can see the “Property is Boring” theme developing on this thread, but it need not be so. And I say that as someone who went to a recent Diocesan Property Committee to learn all about what they do.

    There might, Mary-Cate, be those who think knitting boring.

    No, no I never ever said property was boring and apologise for any misunderstandings. I was just correcting a misapprehension about knitting. I would hate for anyone to miss the joy of knitting simply because he/she felt it might interfere with other important activities. Knitting boring…say it ain’t so Joe

    If property were boring and knitting fun, then this would simply be a restatement of Kierkegaard’s question, “Shall I choose the monastery or the deerpark?” (The deerpark being where he and his sweetheart might meet).

    However, this is not so simple a conundrum, is it?

    You’ll get more useful information at the knitting group than at the property committee.

    Hmm,what happens at property committees that makes them potentially as fun as knitting? I suppose you could knit yourself anytime which isn’t true of property committees.

    Hold a joint meeting combining both groups down the pub. Perfect. 😉
