ReplyDeleteI was carrying the banner for St James at the weekend & what a job it was to find roper's to help us keep the banner up in the wind's, unfortunately there are just not as many people at our church as there once were but the good old bulldog spirit came out & we all pulled together, allbeit Flow Matthews (who helped as a roper) got tangled in a tree at St Michaels sqaure & i nearly dragged her up into the tree, luckily commonsense told her to let go resulting in me being twanged in the back of the head, what a cracking day though, it was nice to see the people turn out even if if wasn't as many as it used to be.
