Roundabout Online

Great and Small

As I cycled up from North Wootton to Pilton the other evening there were glow-worms in the bank. Strange little lamps nestling in the grass. Above there were no stars to be seen, but the shades and patterns of clouds moving against the moon.

Welcome to Lydia

At the end of June we welcomed our new curate, Lydia Avery, into our team.  Lydia was ordained in Wells Cathedral on the 29th June and has been working around the parishes since then.  Many of you will already have met her.  You can read her first contribution to Roundabout in the August posting.

It’s not unusual to hear reports that Elvis Presley is alive, well and running a local chippy or driving a van in Somerton.  But I was really surprised to wake up a couple of Sundays ago to hear John Lennon being interviewed on the radio.  Sadly, this didn’t mean that he hadn’t been murdered after all – instead, Radio Four was re-running a lost interview.   It felt good to hear his voice again.
