To Uxbridge...

...and a happy evening at the Church of Our Lady of Lourdes and St Michael. This is a really lovely parish, and there was such a good atmosphere as we all gathered in the hall. Fr Nicholas has been parish priest for just two years - he's cheerful, youthful, and hard-working, and combines his parish duties with a weekly column in the Catholic Times,writing books, and being diocesan archivist. A delicious and talkative supper after the meeting (at which Auntie was speaking re. the role of women and the Church).
