A trip over the river & into Chelmsford diocese for the putting-in of fellow Air Cadet chaplain, Canon Fred at St Michael & All Angels Walthamstow.

Good for you. Holding on to anger just means the person is continuing to put the knife in.

They can both set off my Mrs’ IBS so she has to ensure she doesn’t eat too much.

There should also be a 2026 edit of *A View to a Kill* where James Bond finds out about the plot to destroy Silicon Valley, thinks for a moment, and then wanders off, hands in pockets, whistling.

A relaxed priest.

Bluebells still out.

Church AGM behind me, so I’m enjoying the Trektory garden.
(The APCM (parish agm) is next month, so a ‘joy’ for another day).

Meme: Alastair Sim as Scrooge looks out his window and says "You boy! Are the Straits of Hormuz open today?"

Well, that's a giant blast from the past. Loved that entire range of tiny vehicles.

Spaceships & stations on a Saturday.

Amazin! Need to build these.

I know for a fact you’ve been watching some B5, which is always time well spent.

"Smegatron" an interpretation of the ship "Red Dwarf" (of the BBC show of the same name) as a transformer. The Red Dwarf is a squat red heaxagonal ship that forms a point at one end and a large, funnel-like engine at the other. The pointed end had a series prongs extending from each side of the hexagon that extend to almost double the length of the ship. A large asteroid is lodged into the side of the ship. Smegatron himself is a large, bulky, red robot with yellow eyes, the asteroid lodged in his lower abdomen, the prongs now placed on his back. Smegatron is accompanied by the headmaster "Smeghead," a smaller robot who transforms into the head of Smegatron.

I was formatting one of the articles in the "War Stories" TF zine I'm working on and Red Dwarf was mentioned then before I knew it...this happened.

Vespers. A bar. Not a service.

2 glasses of Westmalle.

No 17: Vespers. Not another Cathedral service, but a bar specialising in Belgium beers, which are very popular in these parts.

And yet Jesus broke bread with & washed Judas’ feet. You can’t get much more inclusive than that, surely?

The West Gate.

No 16: The Westgate. A mighty total of 1 real ales on tap 🙄

They were being ironic when they named Pizza Express weren’t they?

Zoe!

The Nethergate
