117. St Mary at Hill

St Mary-at-Hill, our Chaplain Rose’s church, celebrated the eve of St Botolph’s Day with a concert. St Botolph is the patron saint of travellers (and the various aspects of farming) and I needed his help later as Paddington Station was closed for several hours on 16 June. Anyway, the concert featured some Bardic pieces followed by some good 1930s songs and was part of the seemingly endless task of raising money for St Mary’s. Rose, of course, was busy elsewhere, as Chaplain to the Speaker of the House of Commons, following the sad death of Jo Cox MP.
