Dr Shaw

 Carol services? I am thinking better to live stream but can I get singers to rehearse? I do not think you can have a congregation not joining in so better to join in from home? Discussion on facebook. Blackfriars, St Martin's but sound poor, Durham. Ireland and Bridge piano pieces with the scores on screen on you tube. Thomas Allery played well at Cornhill. Nice to hear some Alec Rowley. Vespers from Belmont Abbey and the Philharmonia playing Ravel Pavane pur une infanta one of my desert island discs! Very good visit to Dr Shaw with Dennis. I was born with spina bifida occulta in Lower spine. Diasteremaromyelia. I am doing all the right things! Am to have new inner soles and indoor shoes. Mum would be delighted. Fascinating to see scans of my spine. Oddly makes one feel happy and relaxed to know the truth. Slipped discs, polio, all nonsense. A brilliant discussion about women and liturgy between Tina Beattie and Patricia Kelly. Why can't our churches embrace a model of service for those in leadership? Why can't all the laity be allowed to take a full responsible part? Clericalism is dead. Recent reports have shown that. Let's build a new model based on the Gospels. It is very clear that women had a big role in the early Church as deacons, leaders and apostles. Why deny this? Are the men just plain scared? Only connect and University challenge.
