It's beginning to look like Advent.
Not sure how old these candles are but the faded purple suggests fairly, but I thought we'd use them. Only problem is they are solid colour not overdipped which makes fitting the candle harder - annoyingly the outer diameter of the holder is 1 1/8" not the inner

Generally we are the same but we make an exception for All Souls
Reading Notes: The Commemoration of the Faithful Departed (All Souls' Day) may be celebrated on Monday 3 November instead of the Lesser Festival of Richard Hooker.

Had a revelation just now. We have a roller iron at work (for liturgical linen). It has a dial in middle of 3 dots two 1 dot. And labelled linen/ cotton, woollens/ silks, minimum iron/synthetics. Then it has one on the end with a line that gets bigger from left to right.
What does it do?

I found a memorial to a deaconess who died in 1937 today. As a child i didn't realise how long there had been Deaconesses. I met one in 1986 who was deaconed the following year.

The Evening Prayer / Evensong Bible. Is sturdy reasonably legible not too big, but this edition lacks the apocrypha. OUP may do an equivalent with it.

Now I'm in work I've realised I've examples. The morning Prayer bible is great for legibility and had the apocrypha but is far too heavy to be transportable

Decide to join plainchant evensong from the site of Leicester Abbey as it seemed to have stopped raining. It started raining as I was doing the first lesson so I moved under a tree and then saw this wonderful rainbow. Which is very faintly a double rainbow
