Good Friday

I went along to St Helen's Anglican Church, Bishopsgate for their Good Friday service.

While the Underground (more fondly known as "The Tube") is excellent most of the time, Engineering works tend to limit services on weekends. Being Good Friday and a Long Weekend, the 'ol English were a little put out by the changes.

The service was beautiful, mostly of readings from Jesus' last days and The Last Supper and then of course 'Good Friday'. In between readings we sang songs where the church was alive with voices sung out with thankfulness to God. There was an item played; a piece by J.S Bach with Continuo, Bassoon, Violin and Flute with a Solo Baritone. It was absolutely amazing - would have paid to go and see it. Rob - I wish you were here to hear it.

And then, what better way to celebrate than with fresh, oven baked Hot Cross Buns and English Tea.
