Can I suggest you head over to Akma’s blog to read his post about the death of Aaron Swartz. It is moving and thoughtful and expresses more eloquently than I can how I feel about this death.

Hear, hear.
This is only a passing shower – the real rain is still to come 🙂
Great for filling my water butts though!!
No, according to the papers today it is to be scorchio on Thursday – 82 degrees or something similar. Oh no, sorry, that would be everywhere else in Britain apart from the West Coast. sorry!
Yup.
It was even worse down in Greenock last night. The nights really are fair drawing in now!!

You’ve seen nothing like the weather in the Isle of Man in the last 48 hours. Storm force and severe storm force gales and torrential rain have forced ferries to be cancelled, and there is more severe weather forecast for tonight. It prevented us from visiting the adjacent island (England) today.
I had a baptism this morning, so I was not preaching. (The baptism is the sermon). However, for those who want a sermon, here is one that I preached earlier…. I wonder how many of you are familiar with the portraits of Picasso. I believe that there have been a few documentaries on the television…

I do weary of having to defend the parking spaces outside the church from schemes to “improve” the road junction. Having just managed to save enough space for hearses and wedding cars a couple of months ago, there is now a plan to put a bus stop next to the west wall of the church,…
