“For every eight guys who retire in this trade, only one guy picks it up. The whole industry is in danger.”
“Wow. Would you hire me? I’d love to learn it.”
“Absolutely not.”

I think prisons should be safe, actually. If you want rapists to receive corporal punishment then change the law. Outsourcing punishment to random violence in prisons is morally and practically wrong, as well as cowardly.

I would also like to address fathers and grandfathers. Young people need to see that you pray, receive the sacraments, treat your wives with respect, ask for forgiveness and live with integrity, even when doing so requires sacrifice. Children learn a great deal by seeing that their father can kneel before God without feeling that he is any less of a man for doing it.
Illustrated very well by Norman Rockwell's 'Sunday Morning' - how many boys have been prevented from becoming religious because their elder male relatives left churchgoing for female family members only?

All this fog is putting me in a very Sherlock Holmes mood. I am going to buy an Ulster coat.
I would like The Times to stop pushing weird sex stories about cruises or whatever onto my timeline. bring back respectable newspapers

I'm just really concerned that we maintain our progress to Net Zero in all this.

S Mary Magdalene, Clitheroe.
Church on the site since 1122, but the current building is largely 1829.
I adore these early 19th century churches, open and bright with clear glass, white walls and galleries.
The lady chapel is also delightful.

Last night, The Reverend Michael Brydon was licensed as Priest-in-Charge of the Benefice of St Lawrence with St Nicholas by Bishop Stephen Race.
Thank you for being part of such a special occasion! Here are some photos!

Wonderful to be present as Fr Michael Brydon was licensed as priest in charge of St Lawrence, York. A real example of parish revitalisation. The Lord is adding to our number.
I have never seen York city busier as everyone is arriving for the licensing of Fr Michael as priest-in-charge this evening! Make sure you don't miss out on the event of the year!
