  • Happy Frikkiday

    On Sunday we had the happy coincidence of Dedication Sunday and Frikki Sunday – it was the Director of Music’s 50th birthday. This meant much joyful music throughout the day and a megasong service at night when some of those who have sung with him before or who sing with him elsewhere came along to enjoy the fun and wish him well. The choir numbered about 60 voices and thoroughly enjoyed belting its way through Kelly in C and And When the Builders by Richard Shepherd.

    Here’s a picture of me, caught by Stewart Macfarlane, giving the notices at the end whilst similtaneously getting the congregation to get ready for singing a surprise final accapela anthem.

    And here’s the Forum I did with Frikki earlier this year when we talked a bit about what inspires him and some of the elements that go into making the worshp here so exciting. Worth a second look if you’ve seen it before and worth looking at for the first time if you havn’t.

    In my experience the cat is always in charge.

    It’s the one with the elegant pose and the natural air of authority.

    No idea, without having consulted the cathedral statutes on the relative positions of the Canon Feline and the Provost.

    I’ve lost count of the number of people who have asked me for a copy of the Swedish Rite for blessing registered partnerships. Here is a taster: Love comes from God.

    Just to let the world know that the highlight of my day, so far, has been a black kilt. Worn by a very smart (and very professional) undertaker. Excellent.

  • Diocesan Synod

    Back now from today’s Diocesan Synod which was held in an Agricultural College in the middle of nowhere. It began with a description of the automatic milking of cows, which seems to have caught Fr Gadgetvicar’s imagination. It did not capture my interest, but then one man’s milk is an udder man’s poison as the…

    There has been quite a lot of chatter that I am aware of, regarding the Changing Attitude Scotland Statement that was posted earlier in the week.
