    “something that the church overwhelmingly felt was not the way forward”

    …… the way set by the emergency Primates meeting way back when Gene had just been elected was not the way forward and, sad to say, I can’t think of any good that has flowed from it.

    I can only hope that the threats are now over and the listening begins.

  • To Edinburgh

    Oh, what a disturbing set of art installations made up the Ron Mueck show in Edinburgh. A large in your face baby lying on the floor, a teenager who looked like she was 58 and miserable, a man in a boat which was clearly taking him no-where and two sour biddies having a gossip. The…

    Oh yes, and I nearly forgot. I saw a brilliant flash of blue darting over the River Kelvin yesterday. The sight of a glorious kingfisher. The kind of sight that makes you so glad you live in the city.
