General Synod Meeting
It's been a heck of a week or so. I was down in Glasgow on Thursday, thence to Derbyshire for a conference (more on that later) from Monday until Wednesday and our General Synod has been in session since yesterday morning. Lots of fun and too much travelling. I'm sitting next to the 'naughty corner' of disgruntled clergy who are abstaining and objecting to everything. I'm told that they're not all from Glasgow Diocese but I don't believe it. They've already been referred to as 'the usual suspects' by the chairman of the last session.
Forensic references - sounds like Glasgow to me!
Clearly they will have no portion among the just!
The very contentious 'Congregational Status' Canon has finally been resolved after two years of bitching.

I think you'll find that at least one of the habitual abstainers is from Argyll ...
Thank you so much RR for your hipcasts from the GS - hugely appreciated, fascinating in places and not a little entertaining!
