Fresher today but still very warm. We didn’t robe for church this morning. All a bit chaotic with another visiting priest who didn’t seem to know what he was doing. Very long sermon too, mostly full of anecdotes.
Our clergy / readers only robe for the early morning communion but chose not to because of the heat. They looked rather mismatched as the retiree with PTO opted for suit and clerical collar while our rector was more casual with open necked shirt and no jacket.
I hope you had a lovely sleep in your new bed, @Piglet.
Mt mother was at an Open Gardens Village event last week, mrs whibley. There were bicycle rickshaws to transport people with mobility issues. I was ricocheted all over the place my mother told me.
We had a lovely day yesterday. Church was lay-led. One of those leading the service explained at the start that she was struggling as her dog had just been pts, and if her voice started breaking, that would be why. But I am here, and God is with me she said. The sympathy of the congregation was palpable. The sermon, delivered by the other lay leader, was excellent but superfluous after that simple statement of faith.
In the afternoon a fortuitous downpour put paid to my plans to get the grass cut.
In the evening we went out to dinner with friends we had not seen since before lockdown.
