@dennislennox Sorry, Dennis. But Eucharist not BCP except at 8 on Sunday. We love BCP and of course there it is at Evensong. But SE CW.

@wabbey @RoyalFamily @ClarenceHouse Thank you for so much interest and support. And I am glad that people have been able to hear or read my sermon - only one person has vigorously objected.

I am very grateful to @BishopAngaelos for this lovely icon of the Holy Family - which will be a precious reminder of our very warm friendship and a blessing.
Fraternal meeting of religious leaders at @WAbbey today facilitated by dear brother and friend @DeanWestminster on our engagement with society, and the promotion of religion as a solution rather than a problem. Praying every blessing upon the Dean as he retires later this year.

@dr_nyj @nigelgenders @CofE_Education My successor’s been more than once but like me never climbed up the west towers - nor likely to do so, I guess.

@nigelgenders @CofE_Education Nigel, We were on the fourth floor front and I had first a large room on the assembly hall side of the corridor then a smaller one overlooking Dean’s Yard and the Abbey - such a delight! I hope you enjoy the view as much as I did! Best wishes, John
