The miscreant's blog

I said I would not blog about this, but it’s just too hilarious… Our local Anglican chapel is a wooden structure, it looks pretty good, but it’s not the most thermally insulated building in the world. It does have direct heating –those solarium type lamps- but it’s fairly useless. Every morning at nine, the faithful few walk up there for mass.

For a couple of days it’s been so freaking cold that the candle that’s supposed to burn all the time –I forget the name- is frozen on the outside. It still burns down vertically of course, but the outside edges of the wax are freezing up. And so are the two guys that turn up for church.
It’s pretty much all they talk about for twenty minutes afterwards, which is very funny if all you’ve done in the morning is dunk some Italian biscotti into your cup of tea and read some blogs.
