The fourth Sunday in Lent is sometimes referred to as Refreshment Sunday – a day when the strictures of Lent are relaxed a bit. (It is also Mothering Sunday for those who keep that festival).
At St Mary’s tomorrow, our refreshment is coming in the form of some of the most lovely choral must that we sing here. Fr Vice Provost will be preaching on the Prodigal Child. And we’re adding one or two guest choristers into the mix.
Expect something special.
Ooh, Compass looks fun.
For amusement, it says I’m: Green; LD; SNP; Labour; Tory.
It’s got one of those right but I’d probably rejig the others a bit 😉
I got a very similar result to Tim and to be honest it reflects my vote quite closely.
The Compass attributes equal weight to all its questions, hence getting completely the wrong answer for me.
There is precisely no chance I would ever vote Green while they persist in being in favour of “alternative medicine” and so unthinkingly anti-motorist with no positive transport suggestions to make.
The only one it got sorta right is to put Tory last – and even that’s neglecting the fact that, if I were the penultimate humanoid on the planet and blue the only box to mark, I’d rather spoil the paper than vote for them. 😉
Thanks for link – got me just about right, which is good as I voted a fortnight ago!
Lib Dems have an Orange Book?! That might of interest to stereotypical fans of the Glorious Glasgow Rangers who can’t support the SNP (non Unionist), Labour (obvious reasons), Tories (too posh) and find themselves unsure of who to vote for with only hours left to decide 😉
Please, lad, quit this continuous and totally wrong identification of Rangers fans as being anti-Labour or even right-winged… you’re talking about that hell of a minority we have at Ibrox who still go on chanting stupid stuff…
Ibrox is FULL of leftists, Labour Party voters, even SNP, which seems to be the common trend. I hardly ever spoken to a Tory Rangers fan…
Glasgow’s a red city, always has been for decades, Rangers are a majority in the city, how come they all be “stereotypical tories”???
As we read the story of the Jewish passover this morning, we face the immediate recognition that this is a story of a people about to be evacuated from one place to another. The Jewish people stopped on their last night in slavery before making their run for it, through the red sea, as we…
Here are some websites I've been enjoying this week…www.magnatune.com (Excellent downloadable free music – esp the orthodox singing)www.csszengarden.com (Because I've been working on a big new website for someone and needed distracting from it. This – http://www.csszengarden.com/?cssfile=/176/176.css&page=0 just took my breath away. The new website I'm doing is not nearly so complex, though it is a…

A very strange day. The pipe organ at St Saviour’s is being removed today. Notwithstanding all the good reasons for taking it away, it is still a rather melancholy feeling seeing it actually being removed. Changing the organ is our big project for our 150th celebration year. A new digital pipe organ has been ordered…
