I was at St Michael's, Little Coates yesterday for the funeral of one of its saints, with a huge wave of affection back and forth. Several other former clergy were there too which says a lot of what might be said. And tonight they are putting in a new Rector just as I was put in in September 1999. An end of one chapter and the opening of another.
And I called in at Grimsby Minster on my way back to the station afterwards, encouraged by its new Vicar to see Helios. Almost equally overwhelming. I hadn't realised how transgressive an experience it would be having been taught never to try to look directly at the sun.
