Yesterday was a meeting of the Scottish Episcopal Church Information and Communication Board in Perth. We were meeting up the hill in the monastery. It is such a sweet place. Well, sweet in a gothick kind of way. Every time you go, they have re-arranged the furniture. This time, they had moved loads of monastic tat…

I'm having stitches removed from my gums today in Perth. Last week, when I was there I noticed that there was an Ann Summers shop, right there o­n the High Street.  I wonder what the Mothers' Union think of that. Perth must have changed a lot since I lived there.

Getting back to normal now after a rather inactive week. Did spend some time learning some new web-skills whilst I was supposed to be off sick.

I'm impressed with the o­n-line petition that has been set up o­n www.inclusivechurch.net, in response to the events in the Church of England this summer.
