What is in Kelvin's Head?

  • The Cumbrae Revels

    Here’s some pics from last Saturday. I was on the island of Greater Cumbrae at the Cathedral of the Isles to see its two new canons installed. They are the Dean of that diocese – the Very Rev Andrew Swift and the Provost of St John’s Cathedral, Oban the Very Rev Nicola McNelly.

    Here they are:

    This is how they process in the Diocese of Argyll and The Isles. (This tradition developed due to a history of Viking Raids, I believe)

    This is the bishop sporting a slighty twisty lappet.

    This is the light fitting that I once again failed to smuggle off the island but which I found myself coveting when I should have been praying.

    (Yeah, I’ve given up on wittering. Transpires Q, in which I wrote that thing, was too CPU-intensive for the poor wee colo-server to cope with when bots came knocking, so it had to go; it’s all-but a dead language now anyway…)

    Mental. On my ‘to do’ list for today was to write a ‘back blogging’ post…

    Very strange!

    Think of it as the Holy Spirit, Nick.

    Or alternatively think of it as synchronicity as many of the rest of us might do.

    Glad you are coming back.

      So it does. Thanks, I’ve updated the link.

      I usually read Fr David’s blog in google reader. What an exotic layout it has in real life!

    Hope Nick starts blogging again too! He did a post reviewing The Dark Knight once, which is more down-wit’-da-kidz than highfalutin’ praepostorial theatre reviews 😉 (that said, do hope you do The Habit of Art! :-))

      Thanks John – you’ve already got a nicely behaving rss feed for your content but I can’t find one for comments.

    One of the most important things that churches are learning about reading the bible is we must pay attention to the time and the place and the space in which we read it. For our God is alive and is with us in the here and now. When I turned to the gospel reading that…
