Greens are standing.

Ah yes, that makes sense.

The Makerfield by-election will take place on Thursday 18 June

I'm guessing our visitor isn't happy?

Give plenty of time for those foreign actors to make shit up.

They are already at it!

She’s definitely not going to agree to that.

@derxa glad the sheep are all doing well also hope your Dh has recovered.

@Gabrieltomyleft - so that means . . . you're William Saliba?

Didn't think you would be a Muslim...

😂Bob

I had to Google to get it!

I was thinking more about the Kate Bush song Lily, which quotes the Qabbalistic Cross. However, that might be even more obscure as references go.

Now I have no clue what you're talking about

I think Gabriel used to have an oboe...just to add to the confusion 😀

It's part of a Hewbrew bedtime prayer

I looked it up in case we are going to get accused

Except that in the prayer and the song, it's Gabriel before me, Raphael behind me, Michael to my right, Uriel on my left side.

It's from the album The Red Shoes.

I guess there are different versions then.

It is similar to this, which I remember from my childhood, but the angels aren't named:

Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John,Bless the bed that I lie on.Four corners to my bed,Four angels round my head;One to watch, one to pray,And two to bear my soul away.

This thread is so eclectic!

Eta: I love Kate Bush.

Also leaning ecumenical.

I remember this one!
I went to a very unusual primary school. The village it was in had a C of E school and a Methodist school. With falling roles both were at risk so the two churches got together and merged. It was xxxx CofE Methodist (controlled) primary. We had the vicar do assembly and RE lessons one Friday and the minister the next.

Just getting ready to attend today’s March - nice to see the sun - hoping it’s a peaceful day - seems neutral spaces are bigger and going to be better policed. Still Tommeh could have just not called it today imo.

Hope you have a good day @MsJinks stay safe

I hope it goes well and people behave themselves, @MsJinks
