    I get the feeling that this love heart, spotted in a local baker’s window conveys certain truths that it was not intended to convey.

    Wall to wall gorgeousness from the choir – music to my ears! (Perhaps a video one day)?

      I’ve never been in a church that didn’t keep Ascension on Ascension Day and I’m wondering why there are churches that don’t.

      Is it that the people stopped coming because it wasn’t done well or because they are too lazy to turn out or is there some other reason?

    The new Church Music Quarterly was waiting for me yesterday. I can’t work out whether it is just me having a cynical moment or whether it really is as dull as I think it is. Is the Royal School of Church Music an historical society?
