A LETTER FROM YOUR ASSOCIATE PRIEST
Dear friends
Being prepared
It’s always good to be prepared, but sometimes you can be over prepared! If
you’ve read previous magazines, you’ll know Graham and I attended quite a lot
of live cricket over the summer, and we always had to make sure we had a few
layers as the evenings (well, even the day sometimes!) could get quite chilly. I
don’t think there was an evening when I didn’t have to put another top on or
even a coat and a pair of trousers instead of shorts. We recently went to
Twickenham to see England play Australia and I expected to need a lot of layers.
Into the rucksack went woolly hat, gloves, thin top, fleece and so on as you would
expect to need in November.
It’s a while since we’ve been to Twickenham, but whenever we’ve been to see
the rugby before there was always a draught coming in from somewhere. Not so
now, because unless you’re down in the bottom stand very near the ground, I
don’t think you’d even get wet, they’ve closed in all those draughty gaps and it
may have been mild anyway, but it was still surprisingly warm. We were quite
tightly packed though; thank goodness I didn’t have all those extra layers on!
