So, the Masters snooker final tomorrow is between someone from Kettering & someone born in Harlow (where I was born) who grew up in Irthlingborough, which is in the deanery of Higham. As Rural Dean of Kettering & Higham, I feel duty-bound to watch the match! #dividedloyalties

The perfect reading material for a priest's post-Christmas weekend off. Loved the little nods to your mum @RevRichardColes!

A little bit of festive fun! Find the items of food and drink hidden in the nativity story. May you experience the hope, peace, joy, love and light of Christ this Christmas https://t.co/cRBRkRwpBr

RT @MartinSLewis: Next year, 2025, is the only square year most of us will see in our lifetimes. The last was 1936, the next is 2116.

Laugh as often as possible. You must. Because the world will offer you every reason to weep. So, as often as possible, you laugh. That, I think, is part of the Great Love.   - Maya Angelou

Really not enjoying the lack of light and sunshine over the past couple of weeks. But, at least this time of year allows for hats assisting with bad hair days!

Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

I did my undergraduate dissertation on the portrayal of the figure of Salome in C19 French literature. Would love to see the Strauss opera. But don't think I can justify a trip to New York next May!
