Dear Jonathan,

It would be nice to pretend we included the deliberate mistakes to check 
you were all still awake but, alas, I fear I must claim sole 
responsibility as typo-checker!  Sigh.

For what it is worth, Sue has given me the church architect's contact 
details and I will be meeting her in a couple of weeks to see if the 
Quinquennial has thrown up any problems with the church building that we 
ought to know about, so it may be that she suggests a tell-tale might be 
a good idea.

Meanwhile, congratulations on your media performance on the radio. 
You'll be on Big Brother next!
