Some retired clergy tell me the thing they find hardest is not knowing everything that is going on in the parish. I find that such a joy #CofE
It’s odd when psychology interferes with fashion isn’t it? Or maybe vice versa. In the 1980s people started doing up the top button of their shirt when they didn’t have a tie on. I couldn’t do that
Today’s #litter pick trophy goes to Coca-Cola. One fly-tipped mattress reported
I have never watched, apart from online clips from time to time, #GBNews. Yet my smart TV quite often defaults to the channel. I will remove the app if I can but does anyone know if money has changed hands to make this happen?
Just wished a happy 50th birthday to a member of my ‘class of 92’ #CYFA group. Off for a lie down #CofE
Very impressed with the work of #DentWizard who repair minor scratches to car paintwork on your drive
I cannot accept the premise of the question
Any #CofEpeeps up for a challenge?
I really don't care for any sort of religion. That's what I decided when I was 5, and 55 years later I can't see any reason to revise that view. Why do people believe the peculiar myths - please enlighten me

With a broken heating system and no children at a ‘Family Service’ (don’t blame me I’m the relief) the good 14 folk at Church Lench still had a decent crack at an a capella Jesus I Love You Deep Down in My Heart #CofE

This album came out the year we were married. Aged well
Lovely autumn day for a game of footie but @eveshamunitedfc.bsky.social lost 2-1 to Uxbridge who were a bit sharper second half and managed the game out well
Saturday breakfast listening to my boy’s new EP. I’m biased but if you only listen to one autumnal machine soul album this week make it this one

Dead Ringers 25th anniversary tour
The audience for Dead Ringers live is very very very Radio 4, white aged 60-80
#Hunted is great fun because the contestants can be a bit dim but it would be hilarious watching the hunters spin out eight episodes of having no clue where anyone is
Yesterday I had the privilege of spending lunch with a new incumbent as a support and mentor, then the evening with a group of curates for theological reflection. Fantastic to keep my favourite bits of my job in #retirement #CofE
Wife has returned from her weekend away with friends. We have enough food for a fortnight

Lovely afternoon for football on a good pitch but @eveshamunitedfc.bsky.social are keeping the ball in the air for some reason I don’t understand #COYR
Yes. Not a good training style but if you concentrated you could learn stuff. Intro to Matthew’s Gospel as next lectionary Gospel
Waiting for the start of a Diocesan training event. Two minutes to go. Speaker not here yet #CofE
Flu-jab evening. Giving it the old warm shoulder
