With apologies to Spike Milligan
Want a good laugh? Want to laugh at the church? Want to be secretly suspicious that the author has been sitting in your church committee meetings taking notes? Then Writes of the Church: Gripes and grumbles of people in the pews is probably the book for you.

From Amazon, Sarum Bookshop, The Bible Readers Fellowship and other good Christian bookshops. An excellent book for your churchgoing friends, relatives or vicar. By the creator of the Beaker Folk.

  1. The Egg question is one that we all ask ourselves. Our Vicar has wisdom, she gives eggs away to all parishioners as they leave church, thereby shifting the guilt factor onto us. She is really coherent and together and has flown the nest to a warm spot in Spain for a fortnight, after a very busy Easter Season. I will be searching the bins for evidence of illegal secret consumption at the vicarage, but will no doubt not find any evidence of such debauchery.
