@SteveChalke @BBCRadio2 Thank you. It was a good talk this morning. I always say never ask for patience, you will be put in a situation that tests patience 😁

@revdwillrm @StPaulsLondon Thank you, @revdwillrm, for such a good and equally challenging talk. I am just starting to read your book now (thanks for signing it) and hope there will be plenty more.

@revdwillrm Thank you for such a good talk. There were so many good and challenging points to think about. I'm looking forward to reading your book now.

@azealiaslacewig Squaring a negative number results in a positive number. So this is 25+25=50

@FrDidymus Matthew's Gospel has Jesus riding on 2 do keys (kind of). I always pictured this like those old movies with a guy standing on both saddles riding like a hero!

@FrDidymus We had a paneer curry wrapped in pancakes - dosa would have been better. Followed by traditional pancakes with lashings of maple syrup or lemon and sugar.
Needed yesterday's fast!

@otiszeon @CloudxRaven That opens a whole worrying can of worms! Who would do that?

@FrDidymus He admitted he should have reported it but didn't. In my books, that is condoning it.

@FrDidymus Morning prayer today was a struggle. Especially when I read that verse.
But God will prevail; I'm sure.

@Cowpat_No_9 It would be nice to take that title away from the UK

@DeanSouthwark So sorry for your loss. She did an amazing job with you. Sending prayers, May she rest in peace and rise in Glory.

@FrDidymus Fun fact, in old English, 'thee/thou' was equivalent of tu, etc, and 'you' was equivalent of 'Vous'. Tyndale used 'thee' when talking to God to imply His monotheism as 'You' could mean plural as well as respect, much like in French.

What the heck is this numty waffling on about?

Trump: These things were coming cylinders, no wings, no nothing, and they're coming down very slowly, landing on a raft in the middle of the ocean someplace with a circle, reminded me of the Biden circles that he used to have.. then I heard we lost

@acnewsitics Could be worse. They could live in London with over 1,300 mph winds!

@kirstofcomms It's a tad breezy, according to the BBC!

@weather_katie Did your scream produce a tornado or hurricane?
