To say it was a damp start to the day,and year, is an understatement !
It was lashing down with rain, as we arrived in the centre of Brixham for Sunday morning Church services.
I went to mass at Our Lady Star of the Sea, whilst Dot went, and opened up her church, Fore Street Methodist.
I then ended up waiting in the rain for Dot’s service to finish, as it had started later than mine, and as I pondered life – and the remnants of society wandering around Brixham http://www.brixham.com/ on a rainy Sunday morning, it seemed fairly dismal –although I think it’s better in the summer !
Having done the important things, we got the papers, and went home…for some grub ! Papers reading was only disturbed b Rupert,sailor that he is… ringing up to take me out on the River Dart,sailing in the Rain ! – I politely declined, and continued reading the papers !
In the evening me and Dot returned to her church for a Taize’ evening service, good job we did, that doubled the numbers there ! So I had to lead the singing, and pretend I knew them ! Not sure I did them justice, but it’s the taking part that’s important http://www.taize.fr/en
Then it was back to Dot’s for a proper Roast Dinner,wine and an early night ..
