The party's almost over...

..but still time for a cup of tea, a cucumber sandwich, a jam scone and cake, and all the best William and Catherine!

I read the script of the Bishop of London's sermon - here is a masterly part!

As the reality of God has faded from so many lives in the West, there has been a corresponding inflation of expectations that personal relations alone will supply meaning and happiness in life.

This is to load our partner with too great a burden.....

As they say - "Wow"!

The next four blips should come from South-East France - flying to Geneva in the morning and on to Annecy. Hope I get good wifi - but sadly comments are not guaranteed! Forgive!

I am entirely humbled by yesterday's outpouring of best wishes - never had that volume for my real birthday. Shows you how good is blip! Thank you all who commented...
