Well, the after dinner entertainment last night at the RW's "big do" was to turn one of the big rooms at the Lodge on the Loch into a casino. They were all given "chips" to play with, and the RW did rather well. Pity the chips were worthless, or so she said, but one employee had a pocketful by 11pm and he was taking his home!

The RW played a mean Black Jack and a slightly less successful, but rewarding, bit of Poker. She'll be getting the collection to hit the town with on Sunday, methinks!

Meanwhile, I was chairing one of the liveliest Vestry Meetings since my arrival here. It feels like we could have a big future as a congregation engaging with the community, and everyone appeared to be totally onside with that concept. The new hall brings with it incredible opportunities for service to the Town Centre. Now all we have to do is afford the final bill!
