Placement student (aka Steve C.) enjoyed the meal and chats. He also found it amusing that Steve T was accused by his wife of showing off to placement student by cooking a posh tea. Placement student wasn't complaining mind.
Query: to what extent does the knowledge that you are committed to blogging your week affect the content of said week and the execution of same?
Good question Ruth. That was behind my decision to blog a random week as chosen by the public and it is interesting that the first week back after holidays (usually a more reactive than proactive week) was chosen. I have tried to be honest but have not put details of the content of conversations or identified parishioners. I've edited a couple of things out that would have looked strange yet weren't - to have explained myself would have taken far too much time, thought and detail.
Impressed that you went to bed at 11am and still managed to do all of this. I've never come across a vicar who could do the job in his sleep....
Reassuring in a way, because this looks just as messy as one of my normal days!
