What is in Kelvin's Head?

  • Scottish Episcopalians at Pride Glasgow

    There’s going to be a group of Scottish Episcopalians walking (marching? processing?) together at Pride Glasgow on Saturday.

    This is being organised by one or two people from St Mary’s but anyone is welcome to join in. You don’t have to be gay, Scottish or Episcopalian either.

    All you have to do is want to be there.

    Here’s the invitation as it appears on facebook….

    The parade goes from Kelvin Way and ends up at George Square. We plan to meet on the steps to the Dumbarton Road entrance of the Kelvingrove Museum at 10.45am. All are welcome to come — LGBT folk, friends, family, allies, friends from other denominations, congregation, faith group etc. Anyone who would like to join in the procession in the company of a church group.

    If you want to join in, let either Beth or myself know you are coming and indicate interest via the Facebook Event if you are on FB.

    Dress code – colourful. Clergy – please wear a clerical collar if you can.

    Those who have reached mid…. er, mid-life, may wish to bring ear-plugs. It can get wonderfully noisy.

    How wonderful it sounds – no- one to cook for etc, just pleasing yourself. I’ll take a leaf out of your book & set aside a day when Andrew & I can do this with a slight alteration so 2 of us can do it.

    To be with yourself at Christmas is one of those things that most people avoid. Probably because they have been told that they must be with family, friends. Otherwise they are people who have no families etc. I’m not sure what I will do yet. Going to stay with my mum and brother is OK. What I don’t like is the food, overcooked or cold or something. Anyway will post afterwards, might be just was alone. Possibly arrested for attacking someone. 😊

  • Autumn

    The apples are nearly ready to start falling and the students are drifting back to the university. Autumn is here. The summer is over and we are not yet saved. (As the prophet says). There is a chill in the air some days too. Autumn crocuses will soon give way to frost.

  • Park of Keir

    How depressing – the Park of Keir hotel complex has been given the go ahead by the local authority. Ribbon development between here and Dunblane. A lovely wooded valley squandered for large sums of money.I've campaigned against this. At the moment it looks as though we have lost. There may be some kind of appeal…

  • Meeting with Chaplains

    Had a meeting of chaplains this afternoon here, at the University of Stirling. Napier,  Edinburgh and Dundee Anglican chaplains were there, along with a student representative from St Andrews.  The universities are so different. In o­ne place, Anglican students sit around drinking port and talking about the Holy Trinity, whereas in others little of that…

  • No sermon today

    No sermon today. We used a script from an Iona Community book this morning for the ministry of the word. I asked four members of the congregation to take and read parts. I had little voice this morning. I don't know about praising the Lord with song, I certainly praised the Lord with splutters.
