The Girl with the Church Window Tattoo

St Edmund’s Southwold last weekend - a very beautiful Suffolk church

I went there a few years back on your recommendation Simon - a lovely church

I was grateful today (in the course of choral evensong) to meet one of the first women ordained thirty years ago #internationalwomensday

Not sure it exists, and I have looked and sampled. Concur with what others have said re excellent non-gin gins

Word of the day is ‘huff-snuff’ (16th century): a hectoring bully or braggart.

Please pray for Mary Gregory, Dave Bull, Esther Prior, Andrew Norman and Luke Irvine-Capel. They are consecrated as bishops in the Church of God serving in Reading, Buckingham, Aston, the Diocese in Europe and the See of Richborough.

Canterbury Cathedral today for the consecration of four Bishops

Am out and about and for once, not to a church #dontfaint

St Margaret’s Westminster - wonderfully deserted today

At cinema to see Bridget Jones. It’s full of women “of a certain *glorious* age” laughing and chatting about Bridge like we all know her.

That’s because it’s lovely. Was in Stuttgart in December, travelled to Friedrichshafen by train to look at the Alps and the Bodensee. It was perfect.

100% Le Creuset. Around 30 years ago I bought a casserole lidded pan (24cm) which I still use 2-3 times a week for most things. It’s probably down to less than 1p per use. And there is nothing wrong with it - zero need to replace. Good luck!

And also Bad Romance

👏👏👏

It underestimates the career of #MarianneFaithful to think As Tears Go By was the key moment.

Look up The Ballad of Lucy Jordan ❤️

Perfect. 🐾🐾

Turner Prize 2024 entrants today at Tate Britain #claudettejohnson

Exciting. My B+ blood has journeyed off to Redditch

Where is this fine establishment?!

Bless her and a quick recovery 🐾

The silent garden at the Community of St Mary the Virgin Wantage - a very serene place

Adorable! Names?

St Edberg’s Bicester today #churches

Watching BBC documentary on the 7/7 bombings.

I was working that day (NHS) and remember those messages - it’s a power surge, it’s a fire - it was some time before we knew it was a terrorist attack.

Someone I care about was on the tube. I couldn’t reach them.

It stays with me to this day.

I think he is showing particular attention to Bede. Promising.

The more time I spend in Christ Church Cathedral, the more I find to see and reflect on

Proud of you Emma x

Christ Church Cathedral today. This is Tom Tower seen through one of the entrance arches to the cathedral, across the quad

Oxford today, wreathed in mists - University Church, Sheldonian and stained glass

The best snack. 🧀
