I have had a cough/cold now for over a week and so I am still punctuating everything I say with a… cough. It’s half term which give me opportunity to catch up on a few missed days off.
There was quite a bit of discussion this morning at church about the three sculptures that have been submitted for the square. Two are a bit phallic and one is a bit boring seemed to be the verdict but they haven’t seen the full set of documents yet nor met the sculptors so hopefully there’s time yet. The biggest criticism is that they are not very Christian or more precisely they are not explicit enough in their symbolism.
This is a hard one… is St Paul’s Cathedral explicitly Christian? A church tower, a spire a Celtic cross which many claim is pagan in origin.
“We don’t want to have to explain it to people” someone said.
It’s going to be an interesting few weeks as we “consult” which is the latest euphemism for having a friendly row!
