Installed as Canon Chancellor at Llandaff Cathedral. Such a joyful evening 🥰

Back to school photos 🤪 My first day at the altar at Llandaff Cathedral. I think my smile says it all. #NewCanon #HappyPriest #MinistryLife

Thread. Enjoy. You are very welcome.

If you haven't caught the first series, I highly recommend it.

Everyone is welcome to my Installation at Llandaff Cathedral on 21st September at 4pm. 🥰

This is fabulous news! But it makes me feel incredibly old. I was Joe’s Sunday School teacher 🤪

Thanks @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social you have been an absolute delight as always. See you next year in the field of dreams, hope and wonder. Praying for blessings for all my fellow belters🥰

Chilled, connected, refreshed at Greenbelt Festival

#Greenbelt2025 #Love We are here.

Finally!

We have bags to pack for #Greenbelt25 and a whole house to pack for the move … and I’m sitting in the sun playing with lavender from the garden and organza bags. And I have #NoRegrets

Anyone remember Dr Karl Kennedy from Neighbours? The weirdest thing is happening. Friends have brought us out to a concert he is in. I did have a nap after a big lunch. Is this a strange meat-sweat type dream?

Amazing Grace rounded off the speeches at our goodbye party from St Mark’s 🥰

A few photos from our ‘ Goodbye Party’ yesterday. A lovely afternoon of laughter, tears and hope.

Morning! We have a quieter house this morning after middle child and her partner moved out to a flat share yesterday. They are going to have fun and it’s the next natural period of life. But I will miss them.

Just seen Katherine Ryan and Jack Whitehall in my local. And … you won’t believe this … I didn’t fan-girl over them. That’s proper growth, folks. Proper growth.

My last Sunday at St Mark’s. Couldn’t get to sleep & woke up at 5am. I wasn’t expecting so many emotions to be flying around my head. I’ve loved this place & its people for 7 years. We’ve gone through traumas of covid & the fire together. Now I leave them to rebuild. I need to rebuild too. Please 🙏

A quick trip to Caerphilly seemed like a good way to spend a day off 🥰 #CaruCymru

I’ve started saying my goodbyes. Today was my last day at St Paul’s Cathedral. Honestly, if I wasn’t so excited about going to Llandaff @llandaffcathedral.bsky.social , I’d be in bits. I’ve had such a precious time there.

Make it so #Masterchef

CRUCIAL

*thread* Always write the flipping thank you note!

Who is #Eastenders trying to appeal to lately? This storyline with #Oscar is baffling and infuriating. Do they think all working class people are addicts, dealers, thieves or thugs? Actually, why am I asking? Of course they do. And we know the #BBC love a bit of cheeky chappy inappropriate 'banter'

Then they came for the sarcastic people and I was like oh great that's exactly what we need right now well done to all concerned.

I was really enjoying the tennis. Do you think there were under pressure to end it when they did so we could grab something to eat before the football, though?

Hmmm … trying to work out who I should be supporting in the football later 🤔

No rest day today - I had to prepare and rehearse tomorrow’s wedding. Bride’s family are musicians who will be playing pieces (incl bride!). It’s a tri-lingual wedding and we will be incorporating traditions from Spain. Weddings are always glorious, but I’m really looking forward to this. #CofEPeeps

Good grief! I wonder how much money Christian Concern is putting into fighting the welfare reforms or the changes to SEND provision.

7/7 20 years on. The memories of that day are still vivid. Today we remember at St Paul’s Cathedral with a major service. #CathedralLife #NeverForget #SevenSeven

I was ordained 10 years ago today. Wow! What an amazing ride that’s been. I wonder what the next 10 years will bring. I hope there will be fewer pandemics and fires 🤪

I predict this season will be epic.

I’ve had so many lovely, funny and strange encounters at St Paul’s Cathedral. But I’ll never get over how many people don’t get understand why Christopher Wren never incorporated lifts into the design. 🤣

#CathedralLife today sees the Consecration of the new Bishop of Crediton, Moira Astin. 🥰

A little morning beauty. You are welcome.

This is a good boy right here

Channel 4 commissions a documentary about John Smyth.

I just went shopping for a Father’s Day picky tea. I was hungry when I got to the supermarket. Now my fridge is full of ALL THE MEAT.

Who else has seen Girls5eva? I’m into season 2 and loving it.

Comedy night. It’s been way too long.

Gender affirming care, then … (Everyone in the comments has said it too)

IF Musk is correct about Trump and the Epstein files, him saying it now, because they are no longer friends, does not make him the good guy. He’s either making up lies to damage someone, or showing he is prepared to cover up evil for his buddies. Neither is good.

I've just made £35 selling a load of books ... and instantly spent it on coffee. What is wrong with me?! 🤣🤪

On the way to Cambridge for the funeral of a much loved congregation member. E was a truly remarkable woman and I will miss her wisdom and love. If it’s your thing, please pray for D, their children and grandchildren and all who love her.

VERY embarrassing news for cats, as scientists prove they do actually notice their owners.

So this is happening and I couldn’t be happier! It will be sad to leave St Mark’s and the friends we have made in London but I’m so excited to meet everyone and am really looking forward to making Wales my home.

Did anyone else manage to get mascara on their elbow this morning? Or is this just a me thing?

I have this fabulous recipe for eggs done in a water base. Seriously, it will blow your mind and your tastebuds.

A lovely evening with a lovely friend. Mean Girls followed but drinks at the Savoy. #MakingMemories
