The organist librarian

Tuesday I finished at 2 and went to the hospital. Grandma was agitated and I changed her hearing aid battery. She kept trying to pull the lines out so I repositioned her rosary so she had something to hold. To the cathedral for the Volunteers Mass on the feast of St Thomas More and St John Fisher. Phil Roberts was there. The boys sang well and I was consecration torch. Liz was late. Nice canapes in hall. Good to see Mark Doran who is working hard on the Papal visit. To Battersea Park library for a well attended talk by the US Embassy Press attache Philip. Knew most of the people there. IT not working again. Andrew Green thanked me for coming and made useful contact with Economic development office people. So nice to see everyone again. Library looking good.

On Monday I swam 42 lengths - my best ever effort! Tuesday and Friday I overslept so missed out on my swim but I did go on Thursday but I was late so only did 20 lengths. There is a Bank holiday on Monday so I will have to wait until Tuesday to get back into normal practice. I did go to Tai Chi on Monday and Jeff told us all about his trip to China and Hong Kong. Graeme was on the train on Tuesday and today as Dom caught a bug on the plane back from Florida. It was good to see him again! On Tuesday we served at the Mass for volunteers and there was a delightful reception in the cathedral hall. Mgr Mark urged us to meet new people and I met 5 people new to me including the new Cathedral manager, who has been very helpful with bookings for the Interfaith sessions. June 20th 3 to 5 is the launch of the new interfaith group.
