Thanx! I meant no offense to the "low" churches, I'm not as familiar with them because our family has always been up in the rafters with the bats . . . . :-D The last "low" church I attended was St. Dunstan's, when they were using the local Catholic church's gym and celebrating on a folding table. They now have a beautiful little church in the woods about 2 miles from the Catholics.

Re breakfast -- that's what Tiger's Milk and Instant Breakfast were for . . . . :-D

These folks say they have "Barchester Chronicles" for rent in VHS. I have no idea if they'll rent trans-Atlantic!

He does his hair right, but I don't think he's red-faced, oily or sweaty enough per Mr. Trollope's description.

LOL, haha, the rafters indeed, very funny!

Our family went to both, sometimes low-to-middling services then over to "high" services. We made several inter-state moves back then. The incense was intriguing, the bells were pretty, but I labelled the extra kneeling exercise or worse, "bobbing and dipping" because it was hard on my knees. :-)

My Mom strictly interpreted fasting as nothing but water prior to Holy Communion.

Lovely, lovely Alan Rickman, and close enough, no need for oily, red-face. It's Rickman, that's all that counts, right? (grin) Thanks for the link!
