I believe that in Arundel and Brighton, they have liturgical dancing donkeys jumping out of giant Easter Eggs at the Consecration, and fair-trade palms ethically sourced from the glebe surrounding the Jihadist missile silos on the Gaza Strip. <br /><br />Instead we were made to line up outside in the sunshine and sing hymns to which everyone knew the tune, and hold out perfectly cruciform palms while he threw water at them with a pastry brush. (I heard later that the children of the parish had been employed as slave labour in making these up, and instead of receiving the statutory minimum wage, their grannies had promised them a day off Purgatory for each one they made.)<br /><br />Once inside the church, I discovered that all the statues had been covered up and there were no decent flowers on the altar. Then we had to stand for hours while he wittered on reading almost the whole of St Matthew's Gospel (but leaving out the interesting stuff at the end, presumably because there was an emergency when a server set fire to his cassock while trying to fire up the incense with a page this week's Tablet that had been specially pre-torn by Mulier Fortis' cat). Pure torture. <br /><br />So my query, Fr X, is this - how can we ensure that this biretta-wearing, Fr Z-reading, molly-marriage-loathing dinosaur is moved away, and replaced by the luvvly Fr Darryl. Would a photoshopped picture of him shaking hands with Deacon Nick or Fr Hunwicke do the trick?<br /><br /><br />Jadishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15574649057747694825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4508374680487030801.post-86050639423061966412014-04-13T15:04:11.469+01:002014-04-13T15:04:11.469+01:00Darling eccles - one of the many delights of Easte...Darling eccles - one of the many delights of Easter will be that you will be back with us and we can stop taking the Tablets. There is, I am told, a known problem with The Tablet - it claims to be Catholic and isn't xx JessJessica Hoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00336601507234428836noreply@blogger.com
