The Little Sisters of the Holy Herring

Full marks to Young Keith.  His training of the Rockhopper Penguins has really come on a treat! At this evening's Howling at the Moon Ceremony, the Little Sisters of the Holy Herring really put on a splendid performance.  A beautiful procession to the Worship Focus (a herring, a sign of the bounty of the sea) and a lovely spiral of penguins reverencing the tea light.  And the simultaneous genuflection was immaculate.
I think maybe it's the increasing cold.  The threat of frost hung in the air this evening and the Little Sisters clearly revelled in the atmosphere.
However he's done it, it's been a revelation.  The penguiny recreation of the closing scenes from Sister Act were marvellous as well.  All in all, I'm thinking of nipping round the safari park tomorrow to see if I can trade the Moon Gibbon people in for a few more penguins.

Penguins again

In answer to several questions, no - I've no idea where they came from.  But they're making Fr Jack fairly nervous so we're sending him back to Craggy Island.

Holy Penguins

Young Keith has a new hobby.  A group of six rockhopper penguins.  With their eyebrows and bumbling manner they remind us someone, but we can't quite work out who it is.  Possibly a former druid?  Or maybe the old Aspley Guise Methodist minister.
Young Keith is determined that the penguins be trained to take part in liturgical ritual.  He figures with their black and white outfits, their squawking  noises when upset and their habit of waddling as they walk, they'll be a dead cert as acolytes.  At the moment he's trying to get them to learn how to form the procession at Pouring out of Beakers, but he reckons with some in-depth training a few of them may be able to deliver a homily in a month or two.
