I don't know where the New Year went. The whole of this last period was shadowed by Fiona, my Team vicar colleague, getting assaulted and knocked unconscious in the week before Christmas. She was quite badly hurt, but has been getting better, and tells me that she is allowed to go back to work part-time from next Tuesday.
did they catch the feller? Did they heck. The police think that he (man of medium build in a hoodie - she never saw his face, he hit her as she appraoched him) was not local as if he had been they reckon local criminal fraternity would have grassed him up as hitting vicars gives crime a bad name.
So how come I've got time to write now? because I've got a stinking cold and ear infection. Think I am a bit run down...
Had a big birthday last week - you work it out - and we now have a narrowboat! It needs quite a lot of work - but we are very happy about it. Looking for another berth, as the present one won't do for long.
