Yes we are being rebuilt -sadly we lost all the alabaster but church is more than its decoration I guess. Lots more hard work ahead and money raising for some prefire work that needs doing
Alabaster angels #Mackworth church #Derbyshire destroyed by #arson December 2020. Elaborate pulpit, lectern and other #alabaster objects lost, church gutted but being rebuilt..

Recently pineapples seem to go from raw (green and hard) to over ripe/mouldy with no RIPE option in between. Have they been frozen or something? Opinions?

When an old friend dies - prepared him for confirmation, buried his wife’s mother, married them as an older couple- that sort of friendship is a blessing. Thanksgiving for the life of a faithful Christian and an all round lovely man.#RIP

I have surprised myself by making a rather lovely elderflower and lemon vodka. Last year I bought a bottle of vodka instead of gin so I infused it with elderflower and lemon. Great result !
