the end is.....

well the Synod....(see below) ended yesterday. So here we are with an afternoon up our sleeves.(plenty of boxes still to unpack)

It was, I suppose, quite good. Though I have never known a Synod to end a day before it was scheduled to.

Some observe and again, I suppose, it is true that it is a much more controlled exercise than it has ever been. That we discuss what we are allowed to discuss, and there is probably a lot less free rolling challenge.

We live, as they say, in interesting times.
