Wednesday 27th

Was at the hospital this morning for my chaplaincy round, nearly all the patients though were either asleep or having treatment, so it was a bit of a doddle, I didn't talk to very many, and on both floors there were fewer of them.   Bill had a meeting at noon so I had lunch by myself.

In the afternoon I finished off the mini cupcakes I made yesterday.........
Looking at them I think it might have been better to have got another box of strawberries and cut each one in half.  I think they would have looked prettier.

I thought it was a job best done in Emmanuel's kitchen.  Nancy was preparing the meal by herself as the rest of her team lasagna work late, so I was glad to give her a hand when I'd finished the cakes.  The lasagnas were ready made but she went to quite a lot of trouble to make black bean tacos for the vegans, which were very nice, and a couple of salads.   Then the youngsters came out of school and pitched in.   There are quite a lot come for the meal, about 50, that's how many plates I was told to take out of the cupboard.

Today in history...............

2003 Power blackout affects half-million people in southeast England and halts 60% of London's underground trains.


 
 
In the news.....................

 
I know all the intellectual arguments about people not taking the law into their own hands, but this man's two sons were killed in front of him by a drunken driver, and he immediately shot the driver. I don't think anybody wants him to go to prison.   Losing two children like that is nightmare enough without spending the rest of his life in prison.  I haven't heard the news yet but hope the jury acquits him.
