    You are real?!

    I am very tempted to produce a spoof blog post ‘outing’ various Christian bloggers. I suspect at least one of them actually is a Syrian lesbian …

    Oddly enough I was talking to somebody last week who struggled to believe it. I kind-of basked in your reflected glory.

What is noted in public slightly less often but which is no less important to remember, is that it is not in favour of the Anglican Communion at any cost. Our dismissal of the Anglican Covenant showed…

  • Blowing up the Red Road Flats – a poor image of the city
