Christmas Eve

 Three people stood up and "gave miinistry" at the Meeting for Worship this morning and- as Keith noted afterwards- not one of them said a word about Christmas. That's Quakers for you.

On my way back from the bus stop I passed an inflatable Santa who was rocking from side to side in the wind and felt the impulse to wave back.

I think the French word "siffle" is better than our word "whistle" at suggesting the sound the wind is making now....

I've only ever done it once and that was twenty odd years ago.
