Who'd have believed it, Here we are halfway through the year.
Visitors still come to visit us at all times of the week, and following a busy Open Church on Saturday afternoon, the evening Guitar Concert was a success; such that we had to move the audience (and the performer) into the Main Hall! The original intention had been to use the New Session Room, but as it filled up and people started looking for extra chairs the decision was made to quickly move and within 5 minutes over 80 people were more comfortably ensconced in the bigger room. Worth while it was too, Spyros gave us a wonderful performance of classical guitar music. I was so busy enjoying the music that I didn't get a chance to take photos, maybe next time.
This Summer we don't have the BBC Playgroup in the Halls during the week, but some of the slack has been taken up by our regular groups and some new ones too. Music and Dance seems to be the recurrent theme.
Further little maintenance jobs are being dealt with through the summer, and Roof inspections, Paperwork and lengthy telephone conversations appear to be a major part of the Fabric Convenors job.
However I'm not complaining and tomorrow there is to be a wedding , I do hope the rain stays away at the appropriate times. Also for Sunday, I am looking forward to welcoming Alastair Cherry back to the Pulpit, the Sanctuary was filled with Scaffolding the last time he was here.
(In fact I'm not so sure if Alastair actually has preached from the pulpit? we were 'hors de combat' for a very long time!)
No doubt I'll find out on Sunday.
Which will be the first time he sees this photo which was taken at this year's General Assembly.
