Last Chance Wednesday TEXTUS ROFFENSIS !


The Textus Roffensis , an Ancient book over 900 years old has been on display in Rochester Cathedral Crypt this week and Wednesday 28th July is the last day you will have a chance to study it for a while ! I saw it within an hour of it going on show and was amazed by it's condition, and the fact over 100 people had visited it during the first hour.

The book is the earliest example of written english in existence and is actually two books bound together. The book is that old that the Magna Carta was modelled upon it !
If you have an hour spare go and have a look, or study Rochester Cathedral's website by following the link..

The Perfect Friend....

Got a Perfect Friend ?



Someone who no matter how long or short a time passes between seeing them, they welcome and chat to you like the last time you met was yesterday. They still trust and value your friendship and think of you with kindness.

Someone who is prepared to listen to you, not to judge you, to give you advice from the heart. and yet to respect your feelings..

I hope ( I am sure ) I can slip into both these camps in different relationships I have with other people, some of whom I don't see as often as I would like, but who I still think of nonetheless.

Being a friend is all these things and many others to people we love and care for.



I popped this picture of Snoopy on the Blog, as it ties in quite nicely my thoughts on friendship and also the fact that as Governor at Rainham Girls School I went along to see a little production of Snoopy the Musical they put on last night. It was good fun and the girls put a lot of hard work into it, rehearsing, behind the scenes, and performing on the night...I think they were a good bunch of friends to put the show on ! Well Done.
