Formal “gay dinners”. No thanks, been there, done that etc. give me casual any day…. But with decent wine, of course, and food, and nice linen napkins…. 😜
It would be the norm for middle of the road Anglicans (Episcopalians, as well in US?) but obviously not for the Evangelical/ hard line Protestant wing. Having lived in an Anglican vicarage in my last year in university, I think Robert’s portraits are spot on.. ( no surprise, of course with him!)
I am thoroughly enjoying catching up with this story. A great weekend read.
My feeling exactly!
This chp is a perfect example of @Mark Arbour’s amazing creativity. I feel like an addict, glowing with the pleasure of the latest “fix” but fearful about possible delays in my supply line!
many thanks, Mark. Good luck with the grading. I have a couple of hundred writings to deal with… 😱
Great comments. I can remember being interrogated by my sister on behalf of my mother….. 😱in the middle of a lunch party for 14 and I had dropped a huge dish of mashed potatoes on the floor and screamed for my sister to help. As we secretly scooped up what could be saved, she began the questioning…. 🤨
He is a master at this. It comes across in all of @Robert Hugill’s stories. That and the so-British art of self-deprecation which he does so, so well. It makes me feel as if I’m back home in uk.
Hi, can someone explain the significance of 4/20, please.
another, slightly emotionally hyper chp. There is so much going on right now. BTW the Brad cameos are priceless, like a British actress Dame coming on the screen for a few minutes and stealing the Oscar (eg Dame Judi Dench).
a great Sunday morning treat here in Europe (09.00 CET). THANK YOU MARK.
BTW. I got a civil partnership registered yesterday. I’m a married man! 👨
