Design museum

Swam, Mass, coffee, hearing aid clinic at South Norwood Methodist hall (right one tube full of wax). Awesome playing from Josh Stephens at St Matthew Westminster. His pedalling in Bach Prelude and fugue in D immaculate and looks easy! Lucky Sheffield cathedral! Simon Lole could not come. Beazley awards Design museum. The Kubrick display very crowded. Several of his films I have not seen and would not want to! Loved the architecture display in the Beazley. To Trailfinders to thank Arron and he loves Japan so lots of good ideas. Liz went to the Bach prom and I went to Dulwich meeting. Brendan told us about the new website and leaflets starting with Newman.

Eric Chan

We woke to horrendous news from Christchurch where 49 died at 2 mosques. Liz went to server Roger Burton's funeral at St Anselm Tooting Bec. He used to come to Westminster cathedral organ recitals. Philip from Salvation Army led an interesting Lent group discussion on the problem of evil at Virgo Fidelis. I saw Fr Clark and gave him new Catenian posters. To Science museum excellent exhibition on The Sun. Solar energy is the way forward. Lots of students about as there was a demo on climate change. The Design museum fascinating exhibition of architect Sir David Adjaye's projects. I cannot see what the objections to the UK holocaust memorial can be! Home futures is a puzzling exhibition some really wacky ideas. Would you live in a plastic bubble? Eric Chan played Bach and Liszt at the Royal College of Music. Plenty of drama in the Liszt, Great technique. Comic Relief on TV Liz went to choir.

Swam and Mass. Grenfell Tower memorial service from St Paul's is going to be very moving. Be still my soul and Fr Gerard Skinner and representative from the mosque carrying the Grenfell banner. St Paul's service beautiful and very moving especially the children. Giles Fraser on this old heart of mine radio 4. To Design museum to see Beazley designs of the year (I voted for a new typeface for all languages),Ferrari and Jon Snow ties. Tea and mince pie at Marks.  Prof Frank Clooney SJ brilliant on 4 Jesuits in India at Heythrop. Good to see old friends.Michael Redman, Sylvia MacDonald, Fr Malachy.
