We must have the only Octagonal Chalice in the Church.<br /><br />Candle sticks also look a little wonky, with kinks and slight bends in them. We tell everyone that they are Art Nouveau and were donated by Virginia Woolf.<br /><br />Mostly these events happen after the late night games night at the Red Lion. The Vicar getting beat in the quiz, at billiards and even carpet bowls. The thing that stings is that it's our lovely female curate who wins all of the time.<br /><br />The stocks of grouse whisky take a hammering and so does the Vicar's head the following morning.<br /><br />We tried changing games nights to Mondays, but get the same results on Tuesday mid-week communion.<br /><br />Not sure of the solution - when I suggested anger management classes, I woke up in A&E and to this day, believe that the bolt of lightning that hit me was a warning from God not to toy with the Clergy, even light heartedly.UKViewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18114944341930758335noreply@blogger.com
