We’re going to rally the world to push our progress further and faster and tackle the climate crisis head-on.

People can't get any crosser with us right now so might as well get this stuff off our chest:
Scone is pronounced like "on"
Quite like a Bounty
No strong opinions on Marmite
Never seen Home Alone

Almighty God, who through your Son has given us eternal hope, grant us the same ambition for the Gospel as a labrador carrying home a stick that is too big for its head, so we might communicate your love and joy to all peoples; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen #collectfortoday

Idea for an app that connects local people who like Bounty celebrations with those who like Snickers so they can trade their respective scraps boxing day.

The best thing about Christmas is when the scissors glide through the wrapping paper and for a moment you feel like a master seamstress in the 18th century cutting silk for a gown to be worn by royalty. Also roast potatoes.

Well done Prime Minister. It’s a horrible decision, but the right one.
To everyone who is feeling huge anxiety, disappointment or sadness right now- I am so sorry. There really was no option, but that doesn’t make it any easier.
Let’s take care of one another, if only online.

What’s so infuriating is that people will have booked tickets, made plans because the govt said go ahead. A sponge in mud could have seen this coming. If they hadn’t gone gung ho with their ridiculous Five Days Off nonsense, people wouldn’t be quite as disappointed now.

Given lots of people will now have too much food you might want to see if your area is doing what we’re doing in Chobham – cook a plate for someone nearby who is on their own. Check with local charities. Let’s not allow a mountain of food to go to waste please.
