How could readers of the ...Berwyn from Anglesey? How could readers of the 'Goleuad' during 1992- 94 forget you? Sales of that paper were at an all time high. It caused Barry and Elvis to booby most holes on a Friday at the Deinol Golf course Bangor.I still have a photo of one 'avoidable boob'. Berwyns skill at playwrighting, convinced readers that he was the editor himself taking the pi.s.<br /><br />Barry will therefore be pleased to learn that "news concerning your departure was greatly exaggerated". Perhaps old Frank Ifield, who gave a concert in a Colwyn Bay pub recently, could "Teach you to Yoddle" as well?. Congratulations on your OBE, (Order Breakfast Early?).

It goes back to 1997, read, (3 times, to be safe) the historical CiW case, 'Scandal and Offence' (Google) when Barry, having exposed himself (from Bangor Cathedral pulpit) as an OCD sufferer, with a morbid obsession with his idol- cowboy Clint Eastwood (Hang them High). Amazing what he hides under the sofa.<br /><br />He and his henchmen spent £305.000 + getting rid of an Anglesey vicar and covering up a dogdy clergy pension fund. Truth is, following hundreds of thousands pounds later, the wolly is still trying but failing miserably. And so, it goes on......! Poor Barry bom boms, the little bopa woba has forgotten all about Frank Ifield - "I remember You". Doesn't it bring tears to your eyes brethren? <br /><br />Berwyn from Anglesey .

Collective worship is about “being together, belonging to a community with a focus on others … a spirit of community and healing.”Danny Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03592288086188672163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4019954714374602353.post-51567660739683430202017-07-07T12:25:26.538+01:002017-07-07T12:25:26.538+01:00Interesting reading in today's Church Times ab...Interesting reading in today's Church Times about Jeffrey John getting email exchanges between 'Honest' John Davies and the Tree-Eater of St Asaph via Freedom of Information. I wonder what else we can get our hands on: how much of the C in W's money Barry Morgan spent on lawyers over 16 years, threatening those who might have blown his hypocritical cover; or what about the financial settlement for Carlos the Fornicator? Proceedings of the 2008 electoral college in Bangor and Llandaff in 2017 might make interesting reading, too.Longing for Changenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4019954714374602353.post-39212929374605196092017-07-07T10:32:58.240+01:002017-07-07T10:32:58.240+01:00"It is no part of Christian charity to bear w..."It is no part of Christian charity to bear with fortitude the wrong doings of another "<br /><br />I do not remember who first said this -it sounds a little like Thomas Merton?<br />However, it is true.<br />That is why so very many of the blog posts presented by Ancient Briton are worthy.<br />We cannot afford to appease the pressure of those seeking to alter the foundation of the Church ,which is presented in the name of equality,human rights and liberal attitudes. It is so clear that the Church does not, and cannot, live in peace without conforming to Christ's rule of life: which pattern leaves our hearts and souls in perfect freedom.Simple soulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06820918875811010809noreply@blogger.com
