Coventry Event

Well it does to the people who post here... dispassionate and reasoned debate, with a good deal of humour thrown in for good measure.

Is there anywhere/anyone to RSVP or do we just turn up?

That was a really useful and stimulating day. For the many of us who plod away alone in our parishes it is brilliant to spend time with people with common cause.

Many thanks to those who facilitated and ran the event - Presbyter, Alan and PW in particular, and it was good to put faces to a few names.
