The "subversives" probably attend more services at Llandaff than he does.<br /><br />Grumbles on the Green report there's nothing unusual about the Dean being AWOL for weekday services.

It would possibly account for his absence - again - from Evensong (solemn for the feast of St Luke). Less than 20 people present. Most were parents of the girl choristers (who are very welcome, of course). But few others who had specifically come to keep the feast. Perhaps they are following the Dean's example, and staying away from worship has become the norm?Hymn Singernoreply@blogger.com
