All Souls Day

Took Ciarán to music - he now walks rather than use the buggy and chats away! To spirituality day with Mary Lean on self-control which was excellent. Got lunch at M & S. I served at 3.30 broadcast Requiem Mass of Victoria. The singing was superb. I was cross, acolyte and bell. Home and then to St John's where we were to sing the Vittoria but in the end only did the introit. Tuning was disastrous at the rehearsal but it came together. The rest was plainchant. I think St Andrew's non-Eucharistic service works better as there were so many names read out while candles were lit. Susanna Martin was there - nice to see her. Picked up Liz at Thornton Heath.
