A Weak Under a Rainbow

Miracles & Pinnacles
† This is my favourite of all the photographs which I took on my Rome pilgrimage. It is the Tabernacle and Christ’s presence, which I captured from the balcony in The Venerable English College in Rome. The special effects were … Continue reading

The impossibly beautiful long dark night of my soul
Today I received my final annulment letter telling me that Westminster has formally agreed with Brentwood that my ‘former marriage has been duly declared null and void.’ It goes on to say ‘This means that it is now possible for … Continue reading

Frustrating Ole Worlde
Between a rock and a hard place. At certain times of the month to be in my position is to be . . . . . words can not describe. Screaming for as long and as loud as is humanly … Continue reading
