I know I've been in the CofE for too long when my relatively new parish church ask me to join their electoral roll and I know I don't meet the requirements yet 😅 outed myself as a former Deputy Churchwarden who has read the CRR...

May or may not have smuggled this wee dinosaur into the Crib for a few hours before we leave Christmas...

Frequently baffled by my job but I think laying on the floor of the Consistory Court wrapping bubblewrap around plaster sheep figurine this afternoon is peak Vestry energy. "Do you have enough to wrap Mary?" is definitely the Quote of The Day

There's nothing else for it THE GREAT BRITISH BISHOP OFF 1. Preach Week. All bishops to offer their signature homily, exegesis on a surprise Bible verse hidden under the red gingham, and a showstopper full-length sermon. One to be crowned Star Bishop, another to leave the tent

Dug myself out of a recent depressive episode with help of medication and opening up to colleagues. Today has been a laundry/washing up/making real food day. And I am so deeply grateful to still be here to experience it. Treated myself to a new candle bc why not #tinyjoys

Curled up in bed with Babylon 5 on in the background, tea, and playing Metroid Fusion to relax after intense morning at work. Grateful for colleagues who work together to offer services and space well, and deeply grateful that I have the privilege to work alongside them #tinyjoys

Happy Valentine's Day ❤️ A popular York legend promises that if you kiss your loved one beneath the Heart of Yorkshire window you will stay together forever.

I wonder The Church of England & General Synod ... Recorded just over a week ago.. Such a devastating loss to our church.

Treating myself tonight by going to watch the NTLive screening of The Importance of Being Ernest with Ncuti Gatwa because I couldn't make it to the West End show - much needed down time (and bonus of ordering cheesy fries bc why not)

Compline last night was so needed that I've carried the echoes in my heart all day as we've done our usual round of vestry jobs, services, and things from sublime to ridiculous! It is such a privilege to spend time here, to pray with people, and to be a part of it #tinyjoys

Not got capacity to cope with Supreme Court decision today (Prepping for the Triduum and my mother has had serious new health issues diagnosed) except to say trans people exist, have always done so, work alongside you, and this definition harms masc cis women as much as anyone

Ridiculous moment of being in the pub whilst Eurovision is on and watching Sweden - it isn't the best song but they've done so well with their social media presence that the whole bar was singing along

fathomintoaconstellation.wordpress.com/2025/06/05/hol… It's been a long time since I felt moved to write (admittedly rough and ready) poetry, but Pride Compline gave me the chance to offer people a candle and invite them to lay it on the steps of the High Altar - handing people invites to meet God #lovemyjob
