If people are nervous to bring their pets, their pet is too ill or you wish to pray for a beloved pet who has sadly crossed over the rainbow bridge you are more than welcome to bring a photo of them, or a lead etc and be included in the service.

Today, with the lifting of most of the Covid restrictions, is (with God's help) surely a day of Hope!

Even on a dull January day, the Augustinian Garden of Remembrance beside the church is a wonderful place of peace and tranquillity, and signs of hope for better days to come are appearing - bulbs sprouting, and these beautiful anemones peep shyly out from behind the ivy.

On a walk round the Garden of Remembrance today, I noticed that there are a number of plants that could potentially add flavour to the Friars' dinner:
A fine fat lettuce, redcurrants, plums and blackberries (when they ripen), blackcurrants and apples (not doing so well this year), and various herbs.

With the weather improving, the Prior decided to do some gardening, tidying up planters and hanging baskets.
After some discussion between Rita and Monica, they agreed that both of them should help.
