Part 504. Matters have moved on.

 My April Fool's joke (post 497) deceived some of its recipients to the extent that not only did they think I was planning to be a candidate for the position of churchwarden, but also wished me well in my candidature.  A gentle letting down of expectation since then.

The upshot is that I intend to stand for election to the parochial church council and the deanery synod.  I'll keep you posted on developments.

However there is a potential fly in the ointment.  Last year I had two of my blog posts published in the parish magazine under a pseudonym.  A  third offering finished up on the editor's spike.  I have submitted a further article (post 495) under my own name.  Will this one be published?   The article is topical and concerns the Church of England.  Failure to publish will send a clear message to me and might persuade me to consider attending United Reformed Church services given the URC's stance on inclusion.
