In the 1990s there was a service at Stoneleigh to celebrate the anniversary of the Diocese of Coventry.
There was a procession to an outdoor stage and robed senior diocesan clergy made their way there. Amongst them was Roly who had been a guest for the day. As the Bishop and co sat on their stage seats Roly wandered amongst them, looking deliberately confused and producing a feather duster. He proceeded to dust all the bigwigs.
It remains with me as a picture of the necessary progress required in the Church of England.
