2/ Bishop. Peter Elliot, RIP

His liturgical gifting all goes to show: you can take the boy out of *Staggers, but you can't take the Staggers out of the boy!

*St Stephen's House, Oxford –CofE [and my old] seminary.

RIP Peter Elliott, bishop.
From Anglican roots, rose to Bishop of the RC Church.

Bishop Elliot was noted for his ceremonial commentaries on the liturgy, which he wrote in the 1990s/2000s to promote a better standard of liturgical worship in this Vatican II post-Conciliar era.

Mt.Tabor. Happy Feast of the Transfiguration of the Lord.

Jesus took his Apostolic cockpit crew -Peter James John- up this mountain, and was transfigured in his divine glory, in company with key Old Testament figures Moses and Elijah, representing the Law and the Prophets, upholding him as Messiah.

I didn’t know women were allowed in the Pav except as staff. Thought you might have a holiday job! Delighted to be proved wrong.

Some blokey on here getting all excited because of a baseballer serving at 95mph.

I give you cricket’s Thomson, Lillee, Holding, Roberts, Willis, Ahktar, etc, all regularly in the 95mph+ range, a couple over 100mph.

Cricket bowlers may get a run, but they’re not allowed to throw; straight arm only

Larry Summers: "This is way beyond anything Nixon ever did ... this is the stuff of democracies giving way to authoritarianism. Firing statisticians goes with threatening the heads of newspapers, launching assaults on universities, launching assaults on law firms. This is really scary stuff."

As a single material, solid black is better quality than the amalgam vinyl. I once dreamt of a needle-wrecking click on a record where colours changed, or else it actually happened. One of the two.

I’m pleased to have 4 or 5 of these β€œI Gigante Del Jazz” LPs. Purchased from the @sheffielduni.bsky.social Students’ Union Friday s/h record stall, 1985/86.

I still count the Stan Getz and MJQ volumes as two of my fave records in the jazz section of my record library (nothing on Peel’s, but still).

Just back from a wedding.
Bride 1/2hr late, photographer unprofessionally even later, having got lost from the bride’s house (I’m old fashioned that way: if you don’t already know, suss out where you’re going! In rural areas satnavs are frequently inaccurate.)

Looking at that pint I am so jealous!

It was scurrilous the way Slater was ditched as a part of player horse trading.

I find Erskine Childers, John Buchan, and Arthur Conan Doyle to be more 'of their time' than Arthur Ransome.

Might as well see the front of it!

Windscreen is some food packaging (put it in the dishwasher -cleans, shrinks, clarifies).

Side windows are from MicroDecal Kleer (masked with Tamiya 1mm & 2mm β€”I let it set for 15mins, then removed masking. This allows the margin of the goo to lift and resettle)
