    Why did none of us do this after the consecration? 🙂

    Are you claiming that none of us did?

    I wouldn’t presume to claim that something hadn’t happened at St Mary’s — there are few places where the phrase ‘never say never’ has been more appropriate. If such a thing did happen, I’m sorry to have not seen it with my own eyes and impressed that anyone had the energy left.

    The news came through last night that the Anglican Communion is to have its second bishop who happens to have a gay partner.

Quite a diverse aged congregation. A diverse aged choir too. Gorecki’s Totus tuus utterly beguiling us all in its simplicity and sparse beauty.…
