Dear Father Bill,

I just want to say that I find your answer perhaps the most well written and thoughtful responses I have ever witnessed on here.

I do not know if you were somebody else on here previously, and frankly I do not care.

You are thorough, intelligent, have just the right amount of wit and are bang on with your advice and information.

Thank you for bringing a modicum of common sense on to AB when there are so many who just post inane crap and fuel the fire with swathes of hate and jest.

Regards

Shadow Man.

Hello Fr Bill :-)xx

[kyra16]

i agree shadow..
village vicar....hi ... check my thread...i answered you!

[China Doll]

Blimey. And I thought that the all female posts in here were getting a bit saccharine.

My teeth tingle.

[paulos66]

And just to ruin the harmony...
Shadow were you nonced by a priest as a child?

[China Doll]

My hair?

[China Doll]

Green.

And that's just my body hair.

You going to get to the point or am I going to have to suffer the full wrath of Wardy for chatting on his thread as well as calling it sweet?

[China Doll]

You like me for my wit.

Fine.

I was pretty sure it wasn't for my sweetness of temper.

Thank You Shadow :)

For putting up such a lovely warm message. xxx

Fr Bill.

Hello. :)

When do you next go on a jaunt to Moldovia or any of your other special places for the kids you have please?

How do I go about sending a box of goodies to a home of yours?

Clothes? some toys and colouring books and paints and even towels if needed.

What I don't want, is for it to be stopped in transit and taken by others.

Look forward to your reply dear sir :)

Oh good grief.

Now my teeth really are tingling!

I'm going back to News.

B&S should be re-named Bassetts & Sugar.

Stewey: You�re not far from that riveting description. The age mean of the community here is more or less�er um�deceased! When we exchange the Peace, we take the pulse!

With that in mind, it means riveting days of excitement: Lawn bowls for the young whippersnappers. Coffee mornings, tombolas and rather than watercress sandwiches, it�s more like Mrs McGillicutty�s prune daiquiris and copious sums of Metamucil.

In the afternoon, it�s a visit to the local care centre where the residents engage in exhilarating games such as �hide and go sleep.� � Bobbing for dentures,� �What�s my name,� �Hide the catheter,� and my favourite - �Bladder bag Bingo.�

But the truth is, I wouldn�t want it any other way!

And I live amidst two castles and an Abbey. Except for the ghosts of history past, it�s relatively quiet down here.

Be well

Fr Bill

Village Vicar - you just got me into trouble laughing out loud and spluttering tea all over my desk at the Care Centre Games!!!!!!
I used to manage a sheltered housing scheme and the best part about your games is the 'contestants' will also think it's hysterical!
Thank you for brightening a very miserable morning:-)

What a nice thread from Wardy - see, there is a nice side to him!

I agree with you Wardy & most of the others - I also think Village Vicar (or Fr Bill as I like to call him), has been a breath of fresh on here.

Keep up the good work!

Hi smudge , I agree , :-) xx
