For once JCFC lost out in the Old Crocks' "Slow Bicycle" style race up Old Brow, encountering two gentlemen who managed to finish up some fifty metres behind him. Everyone else, of course, sped past on their way to

Jonathan Wyatt (Walkden): Chris Cooper-Tonge, Ali Rahjoo.

From his days attending Sunday School, JCFC was reminded of a hymn tune "Walkden Moor" which accompanied the words "We are starting on a journey" - an appropriate line for a newly-promoted Level 3, who will surely already realise that the path will not always be "Free from toil and care and strife." .....
My BLFG joined a Whatsapp group along with other ladies from Church.  It is a bit of a self support group which also keeps folk up-to-date on what's on and occasionally discussing matters of substance.  There was a discussion on favourite carols, and the previously mentioned Minister's wife commented that her favourite carol as a child had been "Little children waken and listen", which neither I nor her husband had previously been aware.  It had managed to survive two iterations of Church Hymnary but was discarded to the outer darkness in 1973.   Meantime, from our time in the "naughty corner", renamed after out retiral as the "Technical Cornerr" we had amassed a few years worth of sound recordings of services and these have largely provided the hymns for our online services during lockdown.  I had decided that as we had a good collection of advent hymns and carols I would produce an "Alloway Sings Advent Calendar" with a new item posted on YouTube every day through Advent to Epiphany.  (While Shepherds  Watched on Ilkla Moor getting quite a few comments)  At the time of the minister's wife's choice I was preparing "The wise may bring their learning", another children's item of  similar vintage. which survived slightly better until CH4 in 2005.  It struck me that another variation on Whistleblower's "The Minister's Cat" game (presumably now played on "Zoom"?) could be "The Minister's wife's carols" - perhaps when entertaining members of the choir?
