#51

Didn't see him rising on the third day.

Roxy Music's 'Triptych' is about the Crucifixion.
'Psalm' was the first song Bryan Ferry wrote but was not recorded until their third album.

Lyrics to the song Triptych as recorded by Roxy Music.

Here the soil is barren
Here nothing grows
But crosses
They know not what they do
You, your forgiveness
Falls as dew

Nailed upon a wooden frame
Twisted yet unbroken
Open mouthed a silent choir
Understood, unspoken
Never was there heard a sound
Until the heavens opened

Now the tide is turning
To other worldly yearning
Though the sun's eclipse seems final
Surely he will rise again

J.O'B.

That's all very well, but can he hold a long note?

O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?


{:-{)}

The occasional sign wouldn't go amiss.

I suppose you want Warren Zevon played. Don't tempt me. Sinner.

Samson and Delilah by the Grateful Dead.

Steve and Frances in Glasgow

Shout out to Sandy, Susan, Lucy, and Aisla in Eaglesham.

Re: Hammer

It could be a reference to Judah "The Hammer" Maccabee.

1 & 2 Maccabees are part of the Apocraphy, but are included in the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox bibles.

#76

Apocrypha, even.

I used to take a Sunday School class too, and unfortunately my own two were in it for some of the time. They were worse than wee baskets. They were complete toerags. Every Sunday when we got home I asked them why they were so abominable and they swore they'd behave next week. They never did. They say they're sorry now. As if.

But we had loads of fun and yes, Miss B, we made things, did baking and yes, it did take a fair bit of preparation. So you tell Bryan to stop taking the ****.

#78

Bryan is making her cross.


>8-D

The ultimate counter-programming track has to be
* Bronski Beat - It Ain't Necessarily So
A cover of the old Gershwin number from Porgy & Bess
It ain't necessarily so
It ain't necessarily so
The things that you're liable
To read in the Bible,
It ain't necessarily so

with then

#79

What else would you make in Holy Week in Sunday School? (Yeah, yeah, Palm Sunday, alright, get offa my case)

What I've just made is hot cross buns. Perfect ones. :0)

After years and years and years of peever stones.

I know, Glen, recipe to the People's Friend along with couthy tales of Cartsdyke Sunday School.

Bryan is making a hot, cross Senior Producer.......

Anything by Jesus and the Mary Chain for my wife Frances who is enjoying a glass of wine with the dwindling sunlight and heat that is forecast for Scotland this weekend.
Steve in Glasgow.
