    Great stories, and a good laugh! You're lucky to have such good humoured prelates!
    The spirit of the Declaration of Arbroath (6 April 1320) abides today, defiantly resisting any tyranny that would disarm, disperse and despoil proud people of just morals, determined to keep the means of protecting their families and way of life close at hand.

    For over two years now, since I got my first wool kilt, I have been reading the lessons kilted whenever I'm scheduled (about every four to six weeks). When I arrived at church last Sunday I found that the service bulletin seemed to indicate that the psalm was to be read in unison instead of responsively. When I asked the rector about this he said,"It's your choice. You can read it all yourself, or responsively by half-verse or by verse, you and the congregation or the left side of the nave and the right or men and women . . ."

    When I asked, "Scots and Irish?" he laughed.
