What is in Kelvin's Head?

Scottish Episcopal Kalendar 2026

31/12/2024

For years now, I’ve produced a Kalendar for the Scottish Episcopal Church with all the bible readings set out for the year.

This year’s Kalendar is available online so that anyone can download it and print it out for themselves.
It is available right here: Scottish Kalendar 2026

Anyone who would like to make a donation because they enjoy the Kalendar so much and want to encourage me to keep doing it is welcome to do so via paypal. I used to offer printed copies at £5 per copy.

The summary of the Bishops’ Instruction on Fasting and Abstinence is available as a single pdf here: Bishops’ Instructions on Fasting

Thanks Tim. I found google sky already. Indeed, it was one of the things that persuaded me.

Now I can see the constellations in the city! Indeed, now I can see the constellations in my bedroom.

SlideIT – easier way to enter text. Good fun, the predictive side of it can be a bit of a pest so do re-read what you’ve written, although there is the facility to go back to simple ABC input.
Enjoy the ‘phone!

Nothing to do with phones but I do like the “Want a girlfriend” advertising in the sidebar!

  I’m glad you like whatever you are seeing, Agatha. The ads are served up by a remote server which focusses the ads on the viewer, including whatever you are looking at, where you are and I think also your browsing history.
  
  Whatever you are looking it is what google thinks should be aimed at you. I see no ads offering girlfriends myself.

I do hope I’m not the only one getting “Spy on your boyfriend” ads! 😉

I see no ads, which beats the Scientology ads that I used to see!

I have nothing to ad because Padre has forbidden it.
