  the archbishop of canterbury is spending the week in dover, today he visited st andrews and st nicholas in buckland to see the work done there and i believe he will be joining the walk of witness this coming friday.

  it is holy week so we should expect all those of a religious persuasion to be on their toes regarding recruitment.
  
  mid morning i was accosted by a chap that gave me this.
  
  
  

  

  
  
  before i had a chance to beat him up, a little girl ran over and handed me this.

  I used to carry the cross on good Friday right up to the top of the hills, and the steps were the killer and I would not let anyone help me, paying for it now
