I am orthodox.
I am also inclusive.

Have you seen the documentary he made about GenX and relationship with alcohol? I found it really interesting as it makes no real sense to me either www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b...

#Convocation #GeneralSynod 8 documents for the pre-meeting meeting.
I fear we are simply living in a dense conurbation and there is insufficient partying.
Yes I think so.
As a member of #GeneralSynod I have never had so many people contact me about motions as I have this time..
Oooooo. Evensong.
"It's all getting a bit Eurovision now, isn't it?". I certainly hope so.
Tearfully watching an Italian man speaking broken (but very good) English and speaking of unity, respect, being a global family. "Your message of peace will be heard by all." #Olympics #Olympics26 #Italy26

I wish there was a way to share with clergy in the south of England how epic this vacancy is...
1st: There is a job that needs doing. Interim ministry is over and these are viable parishes... but now they need someone to nurture these shoots of growth.

Just came here to say David Olusoga's Empire series is fantastic. Would highly recommend. It's on iPlayer now. Beautiful, frank and compassionate story telling.
Anyone know why none of the local supermarkets have pilchards in? Big fan of the pilchard - particularly the kind in tomato sauce. And for some reason I thought an international social media platform was the place to ask this. #Huddersfield
Very much the Calder - I'd say the Calder & Hebble Navigation - but very much the Colne now.
Heavenly Father, at the Jordan you revealed Jesus as your Son: may we recognize him as our Lord and know ourselves to be your beloved children; through Jesus Christ our Saviour. Amen.

New year. Clean and polish.
Oh my goodness. Maybe I should find my vinyl?
Most certainly not! Wombling in the Rain - and the one about train spotting at Waterloo. Simon and I just putting together our "if I get dementia" watch list as we drive to Wales. So far I've got musicals, Wombles, Ivor the Engine and Bagpuss.
Anybody know why I can no longer find Wombles music on YouTube Music? Or indeed where I can find it without digging through my parent's garage for the vinyl?
