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.

There are some who say that the female equivalent of a mancold is the flu, but I could not possibly comment.

I hope you feel better soon. There’s nothing worse than a man

News rolling
It has been extraordinary watching the story about the Scottish Episcopal Church roll around the world today. One story in the Herald on Tuesday which in itself was not saying that much and suddenly it gets picked up and hurled around the globe, even though the bishops’ statement was in the public domain days ago.…

Passion
No sermon this morning as it is Palm Sunday. We read one of the Passion Narratives instead of a sermon. This year, it was the Passion according to Matthew. And for the first time, I asked the congregation, as the Body of Christ to read the words of Jesus whilst I read the rest. Worth…

Interview
Off to Edinburgh to be interviewed by Inspires, the national magazine of the Scottish Episcopal Church. It is all about politics and faith. Dress like a priest they say. How about a dog collar and a rosette? “Not on your life” says I.

Whom she may devour
Tilly and I have been out in the back garden celebrating St Patrick’s day by chasing away all the snakes. So far, it has worked. I asked Tilly whether she was intending staying outside all day, but she was having none of it. Indeed, she is now applying the same anti-snake treatment to the inside…
