It was great to be with the Primus, the Most Rev Mark Strange this morning in St Mary’s in which he talked about authority and what he’s been discovering since being elected as Primus.
Here’s his sermon:
Here’s the forum conversation we had after the service in which we talked about he Anglican Communion, the Scottish Episcopal Church, how we relate to the Church of Scotland and other churches in Scotland and lots more:
Here’s the Q and A with questions from the congregation:
I have had Garlic Mash three times in the past week, and Garlic and Horseradish on a steak last night.
I do not have a cold, so maybe it will work for you – or at least act as a preventative when am next at St Mary’s.
Kelvin, have you tried mulled wine?
Sachets with the mulling spices in them shouldn’t be too hard to get hold of (try Peckhams). They look like little teabags. Add a dash of orange juice, maybe float a slice on top as well. : )
It might not do much for your cold, but at least it’ll help you sleep, which is what you need right now — rest and fluids.
Also worth trying is a Hot Toddy.
Hope you feel better soon.

This man cold of yours is lingering on a bit or are you “milking” this illness??!!
What is a man cold? Don’t women get them too?
It seems to be a widely held view amongst women that men make much of their sufferings when they get a cold.
There is an urban dictionary definition here.
There are some who say that the female equivalent of a mancold is the flu, but I could not possibly comment.
If Ms Asphodeline is fed up of hearing about my poor state of health, presumably it will be quite a while before we hear anything about her own on livejournal.
Haha, you know I’ll probably get the office lurgy now?!
I hope you feel better soon. There’s nothing worse than a man with a cold

I preached this a couple of weeks ago but forgot to post it here too. So, there I was, walking down Whitehall on holiday a few days ago. I had a ticket for the theatre in my pocket and I was in a hurry to get to the show. And I was thinking those happy…
Today is Lammas Day – Scotland’s traditional first fruits of the harvest day. Here’s a Lammas Sermon from a couple of years ago.
Here’s what the Pope said today according to the BBC: Pope Francis said gay clergymen should be forgiven and their sins forgotten. “The Catechism of the Catholic Church explains this very well,” Pope Francis said in a wide-ranging 80-minute long interview with Vatican journalists. “It says they should not be marginalised because of this but…
Liturgists and People Who Know What They Are Talking About have worked very hard to persuade people that we should be trying dissuade people from talking about Christenings and instead talk about the sacrament of baptism. Today the Church of England appears to have let the cat out of the bag with a post that…
