Apparently some secret footage of the wedding rehearsal has snuck out from Westminster…
Happy 100th post 🙂

I haven’t put up any new blog entries for quite some time. This has been because I was on vacation/holiday in England for the past several weeks.
My trip was dominated by kids. For example, I got to meet my six-month-old niece for the first time, as well as spend some good time with my two-year-old godson and his family. In honour of this, here’s a video I came across on YouTube that just made me laugh…
…and also, since it is Friday…
At the end of his letter to the Ephesians, St. Paul urges his readers to put on the “armour of God”:
“Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God”
According to the Monty Python boys, Paul missed one – the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch…
This Wednesday was “Ash Wednesday” and, therefore, we are now in the time known as “Lent”.  This is a traditional time in the Church for prayer, fasting and alms-giving. In order to be liturgically correct, this Friday we turn to the Monty Python monks of the Holy Grail for inspiration…
I first saw today’s video years ago. In fact, it was so long ago it was pre-YouTube (Yes kids, that’s right, there was once a time when YouTube didn’t exist – we actually had to do work at the office instead…)! Many Friday mornings I searched for this video, but to no avail.  That is, until now…
So get yourself a coffee, set the video to full screen and hit play. Oh, and be sure to watch the credits 🙂

In previous “Friday Frivolity” segments I have covered some of the best pick-up lines the Catholic world has to offer. Well, this week’s offering comes courtesy of Catherine. If you haven’t seen Mad TV’s skit “Can I have your number?” it’s probably a good idea you watch that first otherwise this’ll make no sense:
Haven’t done too well with blogging this week – I’ve been too busy planning my vacation/holiday back to England. Â However, I’ve got a chunk of time marked out this weekend to finish a couple of entries I’ve started. Until then, please remember, turn off your phones when you go to church…
