Clocks fall back tonight in the UK.
More sleep, or more time to procrastinate before going to bed, as you wish.
addendum: bizarrely, this post has been appearing and disappearing all day. Anyone else having trouble with WordPress?

preparations
Not fully recovered from yesterday’s illness, I spent the day fishing for Advent resources. And it occurred to me that we might start an Advent blog — poetry, photographs, short reflections either of your own, or by others. If seven people were willing to take part, we would each have to offer only four things.
I thought about approaching seven priests (and bishops).
I thought about approaching seven members of the congregations. And then I thought about asking you.
Are there 6 of you out there, willing to join in? Please respond in comments.
If it works, we could repeat it at Lent. If there are more than six interested, even better.
kindness
On the way home from the ICRC (inter-church relations committee) meeting I rather suddenly became ill. Lots of people had to be told, since I didn’t feel able to celebrate the evening eucharist. It was pretty grim till 7.30 pm, then very suddenly over. I was just pondering whether I could risk nibbling on some rice, when I got a text from someone who said that in her family there was a tradition of ‘poorly presents’ and mine was hanging on the door. How lovely.
season’s change
I decided it was time for autumn hills.
Not sure if it will stay, or if the call of the sea will prove too strong.
wonderful exchange
