Ahh, a pulley. I love my pulley – the authentic sound of the Scottish tenement is the screech of a laden pulley being hauled upwards. Connects me with my foremothers just like knitting with fore (sp. deliberate) needles does.

I’ve been away for a few days on the diocesan clergy conference. I arrive back to find that I’ve been turned into a pundit. The Equality Network has picked up a quote from this blog and included it in their January newsletter. My original post is here – the newsletter here.
