Cream City

The Old Testament reading for the morning eucharist at a local sheltered accommodation development yesterday was from the Book of Jonah. Jonah the prophet has escaped from the great fish and has finally done what God wants him to, to go to the mighty city of Nineveh and warn it of its forthcoming destruction.

Bill always does the reading for this service. He consistently read 'Nineveh' as 'Nivea', which I'm sorry to say provoked all sorts of unScriptural reflections, at least in me.
