Ash Wednesday

Mass at Anerley and a good turnout, coffee, quiet day on the gift of faith with Antonio Benet. Have read a lot of Jane Williams' The merciful humility of God. To Caterham for 7.30 sung Eucharist. We sang Miserere of Sweelinck and I played Willan and Peeters on Aberystwyth. What a fine tune that is! Just caught train home which saved me a half hour wait! Watched pensioners in Mexico. 

Apprentice

Swam, Liz went to school, Mass, coffee and to Post Office. Quiet day at cathedral led by Antonio Benet on the Kingdom of heaven is within you. Watched secret life of the Zoo and The Apprentice.

Venice!

Did not sleep well. Swam 20. To spirituality day with Antonio Benet. Unfortunately his Spanish accent is not that easy to follow so it was a little disappointing but a good turnout and some new people. Read George Wilson's comments on dissertation and his 2 articles. To Tate Britain for the excellent Lowry exhibition, Gary Cole (not to my taste) and Patrick Caulfield. The rehang is excellent. Picked up my bag from the locker and saw Ian. M & S for tea and saw Michael and Francis. The concert was fabulous and followed Monteverdi and Gabrieli with score. His Majesty's Sagbutts and cornets and 2 organs - very effective use of pulpit and the high walkways! Have I gone to heaven? Saw Margaret Tobin. Apprentice on return home and Question of Sport.
