Angels

Oh! a frosty Tuesday Morning ----- again!
I haven't stepped outside yet, as I've been ensconced in my office working on Client Reports since 7am. This evening, a visit to Glasgow Presbytery beckons, and the telephone has been red-hot since yesterday.
Whilst working this morning on a Major Client file I found this picture of St Cecilia; she is in a building, with which we are involved professionally, and the glass design is by Burne-Jones, just like our Childrens' Window, which also has a depiction of St Cecilia in the upper rondel.
This got me onto a train of thought; as to how many musical depictions are throughout KH. (Apart from the obvious ones of the Choir and Dr. Galbraith)
I haven't counted them for they are many, as too are the Angels.

After last weeks events, it strikes me just how many Hidden Angels are known to us, and also how many, are not known.
As we go through Advent together let us all watch out for the hidden angels. They are among us as we wait.

Staircase to Heaven

A friend mentioned The Scaffold's Greatest Hits, the musical analogy continues. Even more Scaffold has arrived. and when I visited on Thursday the men were very busy constructing a ----- Staircase to Heaven! No kidding, the front scaffolding towers are not tied in to the walls so the strengthening and buttressing supports have meant that the Contractors are able to build a Staircase and not just use ladders. Very secure it looks too, So eventually the Fabric Team will don their PPE and scale the heights. The Structural Engineer has also inspected and has declared that he is very happy with the Works Progress. Today the Concrete arrives which will be poured into the new big hole, which will form the foundation for Truss 3 N. Gosh it's all go this week.

August Garden Parties

At KH there has been a tradition of having a Garden Party (or parties!) to allow members and friends to come together at the appropriate time to carry out essential works in the garden grounds. Yesterday was one of those days, and the rain did stop and the sun did come out! Firstly, many thanks to those who turned out and contributed their time and energy, and special thanks to Ann Shill for the yummy sandwiches. Our youngest labourer took great delight in sowing the seeds of the Wildflower Meadow, showing great interest in the different sizes and colours of seed, while Mum raked and prepared the ground! Office-bound workers enjoyed their blisters (I hope) proof of their hard work - and a chance for my new First Aid Kit to be used. And what was very pleasant was being able to actually do a little proper gardening apart from just the hard work of cutting grass and hedges! New gardeners were surprised at just how extensive the grounds actually are. Alas; because of Parked c...
