Ithought I would try bring a a lighter tone to the the forum.Yesterday I had the pleasure to attend the above.A truly beautiful service.The Cathedral was packed with over 700 children .I sat opposite the school choir who sang their hearts out..
Sometimes its good to step back watch and listen.Of late the forum has been drenched in negativity .
Some of the posters I have never met .Im always about speak to me face to face dont hide behind a key board.

Sue sounds as though you had a delightful time, Canterbury Cathedral is one of many lovely ones in England and wonderful to hold a service such as that you attended.

Alas, we've never met, dear Sue
Alas, we've never met, dear Sue
I but admire from afar
I know of much it is you do
within a sky of deepest blue
you are a shining star
A Local Politician's lot
can be a thankless task
with tribulations fraught
and toil so oft for naught
while carpers freely bask
Sure there's many you do meet
of constituents in the lurch
much travelled in your Seat
yet so seldom off your feet
when not in Hall or Church
Mayhap the doubters you, will heed
and to your side process
to receive the ear they dearly need
and upon your wisdom eager feed
and a mutual respect profess
It must be said, there's others too
who likewise hark to plaint
that thankless do as they should do
as likely Red as there are Blue
and many whose figure's faint
Let us remain positive throughout
and positive out-through
encourage all those who doubt
be they landed-lord or lowly-lout
as we joint progress pursue
Ignorance is bliss, bliss is happiness, I am happy...to draw your attention to the possible connectivity in the foregoing.

Hi Sue,
My three grandaughters all go to St Edmunds and were at the service on Friday. The eldest is deputy head girl. They all said how much they enjoyed the day and how interesting it was.
Quite some feat taking that many children to the cathedral but how wonderful that it all went off so well.
Well done " St Eddys" !!
There's always a little truth behind every "Just kidding", a little emotion behind every "I don't care" and a little pain behind every "I'm ok".
