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.

Ordinations
Several people I know have been ordained this week. Inevitably, it makes me think about my own ordinations, first to the diaconate and then to the priesthood. Tomorrow I’m going to Glasgow to a first Eucharist. No doubt I’ll be thinking of my own first mass. It was outside in the open air, in the…

Spiders
Wallace, the largest spider in Caledonia seems to have come to the Rectory to make himself at home in my living room. Presumably he was encouraged in this by Bruce, the second largest spider in Caledonia, who has, for some time, been residing in the bathroom. I’ve told Tilly that spiders are her business and…

Sermon – 26 September 2004
I did some work once, with someone who had a PhD in Hell. This always impressed me. Well, to be strictly accurate, I think that it was all about the effect that different forms of belief in hell make to the way Christian people go about caring for one another. And very interesting that idea…
