Rain & other things

Just a quick note to say how pleased I am, that Alastair of Surface Contracts, was able to clean out all our Ground Drains. How can it be possible that so much water can fall in one short week. At least the winds have shaken most of the remaining leaves from the trees. So the next task is to get the Gutters cleared (again) before the winter weather comes.
Off to man 'Open Church' now; always a worthwhile task. I wonder what music I'll play today?
Any requests? Let me know and if I don't play it this week, I may be able to fulfil your requests next week

  1. Suite Gothique by Leon Boƫllmann, since Willie tells me the Willis is not up to a live performance!

    I of course will be watching Scotland versus the All Blacks, but I'll think of its being played in the building where I first heard it, from the hands of the great Willie May, when you were just a gleam in your Mum's eye!! Ainz

  2. And you have this on CD? If so, then I can comply.

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 ...

Re-Dedication Service

The clean-up team have been in this week! Many thanks to them---they know who they are! The Sanctuary is looking much cleaner and shinier now. Final clean-up on Friday! We are all looking forward to the Service on Saturday which Alastair Cherry will conduct, lots of people have said they are able to come and the weather forecast is favourable. One little word, the Church is still technically a Building Site, So please pay heed to the advice of the Stewards and remain on the permitted side of any roped-off areas. Hard Hats will not be neccessary.

Return from the brink?!

Don't do it! It does seem a little strange, but I think this is the second photo of this very hardworking person "up close and personal" with a window. Although the last time we managed to have the window brought down from on high for her close inspection. Whatever, the gist of all this is; that this particular property owned by the Congregation is now ready for a new tenant. As explained during the 'At-Home Sessions' this will be an extra source of income for the Congregation. A lot of work by a lot of people has gone into achieving this, and cleaning the windows on a glorious Autumn afternoon has been just part of it.
