Daylight and the Chancel is looking good. We ran out of time today, so the Belmont Cross will be hung next week.
At least the new drapes are hung in time for the Carols by Candlelight Service and the Nativity and by Christmas we will really be showing off all of our clean and bright Sanctuary.
Many thanks once again to all who have helped us over the last few months.
More 'posts' tomorrow, it is the Children's Party and we are hopeful of a special visitor; I'm just wondering if he'll use the scaffold ladders to get off the roof as we don't have an open chimney anymore!?
The snow held off this morning and the Contractors were hopeful of taking down 4 'flights' of scaffold before Christmas. however it was deemed too dangerous for that this morning. 'What about the weather vane?' I asked. 'Well we;ll see how it is the afternoon and we've got a back-up with the Steeplejacks if necessary' said Hunter & Clark. Off I went on errands and on my return driving along Queen Margaret Drive I noticed that the scaffold around Oran Mor had been taken down and then I noticed a 'High -vis' figure on top of our Fleche which clothed in its scaffold looks a bit like a pineapple over the roof tops of Grosvenor Terrace. Once it was safe to do so, I of course took photos of Archie and Craig tackling the re-installation of our very own 'Chanticleer' All this was of course whilst the snow was coming down again. Hard! However the Task was successfully accomplished. Thank You both, very much. It is much appreciated by all of us at ...
