But no: they chose Fake Gay Panic.

My bourgeois dream is clean cotton bedsheets daily. I fear even that might be a bit beyond the bourgeoise.
noticed this morning that supermarket diesel was edging towards £2
I might be working from home a bit.
Tonight we release our EP at Holy Nativity Mixenden. You can listen to the title track already out on Streaming services. We’d love to see you tonight from 6pm onwards for live music and a bar.

I shall look forward to turning one of your books into an art journal but it may take me several decades to work through the massive stack of ancient hymn books i inherited from my grandmother - musical notation makes excellent mixed media backgrounds !
It’s like i’m a prophet or something
What a beautiful girl. She looks sooooo velvety and snooshable.
“Why is rach posting pics of terrible 70’s comedies?”

Aaaahhhh
somebody needs to check on kermit?
Today the Church of England remembers Theodore of Tarsus, second Archbishop of Canterbury, who had never set foot in these isles before being appointed, and who had to learn the local tongue on the journey here.
There would be no British Christianity without immigrants.
apparently the agm
just happened. Never paid much attention before … think we’d better start
Worked in the legal
profession for 8 years, still can’t spell privilege without a d and when I type it, always comes
out provologue first time.
Trying to take a clearly AI generated strategy for a new charity and turn it into a coherent funding bid … essentially meant completely rewriting the strategy, which is not what a fundraiser is for
It’s also deeply Un british behaviour ironically
And some of us are in both camps! See you Tuesday !
I remember my parents making not very subtle euphemistic comments about the clubs he ran in Leeds in the 60’s - but it was all nudge nudge wink wink and couched in a general sense that young girls were fair game if you were a nightclub impresario.
Growing up in the area where he lived *literally everybody* knew. I even have a ‘humorous’ story from when I was about 15 of a very brief encounter with him as he jogged past me outside school and nicked the chocolate bar i was eating. I joked i’d had a near miss. My folks laughed. Everybody Knew.
oh my goodness it’s a clone!
I can assure you this pose was the result of many many petting
I really do need to move. #proofofcat #toebeans
While the mainstream discussions are depressingly about *how* best to remove and stop immigrants, it’s a revolutionary act nowadays to say that immigration is actually a positive thing and an essential component of a thriving country, so please join me in doing so!
@metanoiauk.bsky.social use it @holynativity.bsky.social for Rock Mass so very familiar but singing anything with several thousand voices is always great.
twas a delight from start to finish (and i’m with you on One of Us)
you were missed
That looks epic
The Church of England runs on the strength of its volunteers. Without local people giving up their holidays to work with the children of the parish, Youth Group Camp wouldn’t be possible. These are the people who give up their time every week to change people’s lives.

5 years ago we needed to replace the second family car because some short journeys are just unavoidable and we had no £ so bought a £400 banger expected to last 6 months - still running and is a miracle at MOT time with only minor costs (albeit equivalent to about 50% of original
cost of the heap)
Youth Group: life under canvas.
Coming back through Portsmouth on Sunday - the signage is just soooooo depressingly dystopian - not a hint of “welcome to our wonderful country” anywhere just wall to wall “papers please”
