Well. I have done it. I shall make it my Lent 2025- Lent 2036 gentle unfolding project. I have never read it before but @malcolmguite.bsky.social, after so many many mentions of it from you, I have become converted - how could I go through life without trying it?

The first time in 2025 that the “early” mass has begun in daylight, and by the end God was painting glory up the walls 😍

Spring is on her way. I cut back some die back today and discovered these friends. The Black Dragon bearded iris sending out exploratory spears. The return of the glorious oriental poppies the big furry bees adore… and this hellebore, glorious in Spring Skirts and colour :-)

I know it’s cold. But these are in our churchyard. Hang in there everyone, there is a rustling and bustling of bulbs… it might feel like always winter and Christmas is a memory… but Spring is shaking out her skirts ;-)

Watch out for the wee beastie when out on your travels tonight. They have a wee dram on Burns night and can become quite disoriented and wander about on the highways. Running over a haggis is twenty one decades of the rosary

125 years of Birmingham’s epic University, and Old Joe’s tower is lit. Tallest freestanding clock tower, icon of Birmingham, and just the coolest clock you’ll ever hang out with. Looking glorious
