What is in Kelvin's Head?

  • Wind News

    It feels a little bit like the Day of Doom here at St Mary’s this morning what with the weather. I’m going to proceed on the basis that it isn’t but here are some of the things I’ve been hearing via twitter and social media in the last half hour or so.

    • Level crossing destroyed near Carstairs
    • There are people on trains that are going no-where.
    • Plane arrived at Glasgow airport from Canada (ie through the wind) only for a delay in getting them off because they couldn’t connect the bridge to the aircraft.
    • Airports now closed.
    • Glass falling from ceiling at Central Station in Glasgow – everyone evacuated.
    • No trains running
    • Red alert for roads – ie don’t drive and pull over if you are in a high sided vehicle

    It is impossible to comment on these matters without appearing patronizing, ignorant or rude probably all three at once.
    I’m not a member of any Christian denomination, but if I was an Episcopalian and 38 Archbishops of my church unanimously signed a communique then I would be loath to disagree with it.

    I was at a conference in York last summer and participated in a workshop on sexual diversity. I was proud to be able to quote part of this statement to others in the group. I’m not sure if it was this summer I would feel as proud to be a member of the Scottish Episcopal Church.

  • Picking up comments

    Just to pick up a few comments from elsewhere that need to be answered. Jenny Berrie – of course I remember you. Many a happy knitting class in the chaplaincy in Stirling. Now, remember all I told you: knit one unto another, perl one unto another. Robin asked why we moved John the Baptist to…
