The Thoughts of Sidney Chambers.

@DickensGranster Dickens! Language!

[Sidney Chambers @canonsidney]

Today is going to be a great day!

[Sidney Chambers @canonsidney]

The race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong.

[Sidney Chambers @canonsidney]

Perhaps I should think about training Dickens as a guard dog to prevent thefts from the church nativity scene this year.

[Sidney Chambers @canonsidney]

The low November sun causes my thoughts to turn to Advent, and all that ensues.

[Sidney Chambers @canonsidney]

The busiest time of the year is once again upon us – just returned from an evening of lively rehearsals with the choir.

It seems the only chance I’ll ever get to taste Mrs Maguire’s fruit cake will be if I accompany her to the Archdeacon’s for tea.

[Sidney Chambers @canonsidney]

Went well enough, although they were more interested in discussing recent visits from the tooth fairy...

[Sidney Chambers @canonsidney]

Off to Newnham Croft Primary School for a discussion about incarnation. This should be eventful.

[Sidney Chambers @canonsidney]

Oh, Dickens appears to have brought the meadow home with him.

Sorry Mrs M...

[Sidney Chambers @canonsidney]

I have confessed my sins, but I feel no redemption. God may have forgiven me, but I cannot forgive myself.

'For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope'

[Sidney Chambers @canonsidney]

Even with Jesus at my side, the sheer terror I felt today was indescribable. I can't imagine losing Geordie.

[Sidney Chambers @canonsidney]

I cannot be close to her without my skin crawling with guilt. How do men lie and stay sane? The truth burns through me.

[Sidney Chambers @canonsidney]

Apologies to Dickens for blaming him for all of the puddles around the vicarage. Turns out we have a terrible roofing problem.

Taking yet another wedding service on Saturday. Keeping the father-of-the-bride off the whiskey will make for a rather interesting challenge

[Sidney Chambers @canonsidney]

Despite my recent visit, I rather enjoy my jaunts down to London. It's fascinating to see the different response I get without my dog collar

The fifth of November. Always tricky to explain to children the whole thing about burning Catholics.
