Well, I'm the talk of the steamie! And not for the reasons you might think.
I dare, yes, dare, to walk to church. Who'd have thought that half a mile was an unacceptable distance to walk? Apparently the last time a minister in Railway crossing walked to church, it was before ministers had cars.
It was seen as being so strange that 4 people offered me a lift home. Just wait till the discover I'll do my pastoral visiting either by bike or on foot. Really, it's not that far. And a minister (or at least this trainee one) is not above walking. Besides, I need to burn off all that cake you keep giving me. And its a good way to meet people - even if it is just a passing 'hello' - after all, they are all 'my' parishioners.
