Huge thanks from me
I (and Jeannette!) am
so grateful to those who were present for Music Checking. We got all
done bar two - mine and number 24, both of which I will sort over the summer
break. Thank you all (especially Bernard) for a thoroughly
successful year despite being without an organist. Have a really wonderful summer break
We start back on 18
September, allowing everyone a period of time to take holidays after
the school's summer break. Follow the Parish trip to Tanzania with Father Deo Kathy Perkins intends to post regular updates on the Parish Website. There is also a link to their Itinerary. |

Parish History Richard and Andrew are in the process of updating the last-published church history booklet. If you have any old pics of the parish I know they'd welcome them for possible inclusion. St. Bart's Memories No. 16 The building of the third extension to the Presbytery (above the second) in 1966. |
For your coffee breaks Smooth Criminal played on a Barbary Organ by Patrick Mathis - means nothing to me me, but it's rather fun! Who remembers the Peter Dominic drive-through off licence next to the old Jolly Hosteller (King William IV)? Nostalgia in the brands and the prices! Page 1 & page 2. Those of you who enjoy an away-day singing might wish to look at the Platinum Consort events that are up-coming in Battersea. The Vatican cricket team in the UK. Addington Pumping Station Beam Engine. Britain's first Trappist beer launched. 200 years of the birth of Catholic composer Charles Gounod. The renaming of London Boroughs - Part 1 Part 2 and Part 3. The Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy and an alternative perspective of the RAF100 flypast on 10 July - this month's mesmerisations! Richard Dimbleby and the Crystal Palace fire of 1936, and the short Pathé video of the event hinted at at the top of the page. And finally, there was some football recently I understand....?!! |
