Call me a curmudgeonly old Rightie, but p...Father,<br /><br />Call me a curmudgeonly old Rightie, but please allow an observation.<br />Today, May 4th is the Feast of the Holy Martyrs of England & Wales. <br /><br />Today, May 4th, our Bishop chose to celebrate Mass in the Cathedral for the Diocesan Justice & Peace activists prior to their joining their fellow Lefties in the May Day march through the city centre.<br /><br />Don't get me wrong. I don't much care what a bunch of Leftists chose to get up to in their own time and in their own place. But I do wonder at the wisdom of the Cathedral authorities hosting such a devisive and sectarian event. I also question whether it is appropriate for the lecturn to be draped in the multi-coloured all-purpose flag which originated with the LGBTG people.<br /><br />OK, I know I am an old disgruntled<br />type, one who has never got over being asked to leave the inaugural meeting of the Diocesan J&P group in the 1970's, on the grounds that I was a self-confessed Tory.<br /><br />It's obviously more important to celebrate May Day than to remember the Martyrs of England & Wales.<br /><br />Terry Middleton1569 Risingnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35539648.post-37040225031801864412013-05-01T19:48:49.341+01:002013-05-01T19:48:49.341+01:00A vast improvement indeed.

One suggestion: why not replace the wooden bracket and shelf supporting the Cross with a plaster corbel painted the same colour as the pilaster?Rubricariushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05050302650867319277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35539648.post-37827835492293781662013-04-30T11:08:56.393+01:002013-04-30T11:08:56.393+01:00Father,
