November is a strange month. For those of us who work with the calendar of the school year, it marks the start of the second half of the autumn term. Whereas the first half is almost a continuation of summer - September often being better weather than August - by the time the second half begins, the clocks have gone back, making darkness fall early, the weather is generally dreich (what a lovely Scots word!), and there's no doubt that the summer is well and truly over, and we're into winter.
My five minutes of fame on national TV.......
Christ's patient loving care over generations.......
We were on GMTV over the summer hols. Did you see us? There's no TV in our caravan so we've not seen ourselves, but others have, even someone from the Parish. They remarked on my homemade kebabs: sumptuous, multicoloured layers of vegetables and chicken threaded together and cooked over red-hot, glowing charcoal.
