@FrMartinFlatman @FrDidymus So you have baby goats at church?

[Alexandra Green @AlElGreen]

@SanjeePerera1 I have met her evil cousin also - she has no limits. Hope you have plenty of cotton wool.

[Alexandra Green @AlElGreen]

@theabingdontaxi Fr Sam will know.

[Alexandra Green @AlElGreen]

@matthewcashmore @FatherSJC Pencil me in please.

[Alexandra Green @AlElGreen]

@lukeappleton No, it involves the children (not goats aka kids) being more tolerant of the adults with their tsks.

[Alexandra Green @AlElGreen]

@RichardGowers We have them at parish of abingdon-on-thames

[Alexandra Green @AlElGreen]

@FatherSJC @GaryWaddington Could you explain the difference please, Father?

[Alexandra Green @AlElGreen]

Also see my book How to Survive as a Governor in a Church School | School Governor | RP Books for how faith based schools can be inclusive.

I'm team #GIF. How do you pronounce it?

[Alexandra Green @AlElGreen]

@LucySixsmith I like to think the reason I do lots of Marthaish stuff is so other (holier) people can do the Maryish stuff and not worry about Henry the Hoover or Matilda the mop or Phyllis the photocopier.

@OSacrumCorIesu @revdphilippa @MadsDavies In our diocese we have 360 degree review for clergy as part of their Ministerial Review process, although at a recent PCC the subject came up and the clergy didn't know it was called that.

@Missymusician81 Get them to play a game that involves running around - tag or similar. They are so exhausted after 10 mins they are glad to sit down and concentrate.

@OurCofELike Thank you Colin. I wondered who the patrons were. Do they have to preach as part of the interview?

[Alexandra Green @AlElGreen]

@OurCofELike Colin - is there a programme for the spouses during the interviews?

[Alexandra Green @AlElGreen]

@OurCofELike Also the location of the rectory in relation to the church can be a factor.

[Alexandra Green @AlElGreen]

@lydimoo I always refer to Secular Christmas as 'Xmas'.

[Alexandra Green @AlElGreen]

@OurCofELike A bad rectory is a major turn off.

[Alexandra Green @AlElGreen]

@ITimbrell I was once told on induction day for new staff 'if you're well enough to ring in sick, you're well enough to come in'.🤨

[Alexandra Green @AlElGreen]

@OurCofELike Colin - what's that book on the top of the pile, please?
