What is in Kelvin's Head?

  • Mr Provost’s Finest Reindeer Receipt

    Roughly chop a leek, couple of slices of bacon and as many cloves of garlic as you dare.

    Heat a frying pan to a sizzle and fling the leek, bacon and garlic in, closely followed by the reindeer steaks.

    After five minutes turn the steaks over and scoop the leek/pig/garlic into another pan.

    Heat this as far as you dare and tip in enough cheap gin to make you wonder whether this is a waste of good gin.

    Throw in a handful of blueberries

    Heat until kitchen is covered in fog reminiscent of the incense at midnight mass.

    Remove from heat and gently stir in several good dollops of crème fraîche.

    Rudolph steaks will now be ready having cooked for a further five minutes. Artfully plate them up and cover with the sauce that will now be advent coloured.

    Serve with oven roasted potato, butternut squash, red pepper, courgette ensemble.

    Yes, the first one is a little too well produced.

    I’m imagining the cat version: disdainful look; “have you been away? my food bowl’s empty” miaow; walks off.

    Having enjoyed the doggie reunions video very much, Opal the Cat wishes to say that he hasn’t looked at his food dish once since I got back here tonight, nose rubbing, tummy tickling, head butting and general joyous ‘glad to see you’ stuff for a couple of hours, then an interesting video, followed by a companionable sleep on the table – on my hand ….

    I know someone who ,when he was young, used to get a similar reception from a boxer dog called Tess

    Yes, the first one is neatly packaged, but it appears to be a commercial, not home videos.

    Sorry, but it doesn’t take returning from a tour of duty for dogs to act this way, just go to the grocery store for 30 minutes and dogs will behave the same over-the-top way!

    Some of the dogs are bigger than the humans

  • New Book

    A treat. Richard Giles has another book out – Creating Uncommon Worship. It does for the liturgy what Re-pitching the Tent did for Church Buildings. It is deliciously caustic, wise and very funny and there are lots of pictures. Here is a taster (on whether or not to sing the Collect of the Day): “There…

  • Sunday's sermon

    In response to a comment by e-mail – no, the sermon posted o­n the website is not quite what I preached o­n Sunday. I had written it before going away o­n Thursday last week and before the Russian school atrocity.

  • Sermon – 5 September 2004

    I?d really like to concentrate on the Potter?s Wheel image from Jeremiah this morning. However, since we heard that reading, we have now just had a gospel reading which I don?t think can be read without comment. Those of you who have been here over the last couple of weeks will have heard several bits…

  • Provincial Conference

    No easy internet access at the conference, so no reports up until now. It has gone very well indeed. Although it was not just about big name speakers, it was worth going just to hear Rowan Williams speak. It is hard to imagine the abuse that he has to put up with, yet he stands…
