Hats are old hat. What you really need is a papal ombrellino to keep the snow off! Then you could wear a wooly hat under it which no one would notice because they’d all be so impressed by what you were carrying. Or maybe what the server was carrying for you.

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.
