Memoriam

Published on August 22, 2014September 5, 2014 by chrisrenney3 Comments

A statue to honour those who died in the steel industry in Corby, Northamptonshire, England, over the years. Corby has suffered financial hardship because of the loss of most of the industry and, whilst regeneration is occurring, it is mainly the leisure industry which is creating jobs now. I feel this statue also honours the dying industry itself.

THE MONK

Published on August 9, 2014September 14, 2014 by chrisrenney12 Comments

This gentleman is a Franciscan monk – we have never seen them before in Bradford but this last trip we saw two monks. Their church is right next door to the Islam Centre in the city, which I think is what a multicultural society is about and shows a positive and healthy attitude to different belief systems, if you participate in any. He was very charming, an American, and spoke with us for a short while about his church. After we parted a company another couple asked us what he had told us – they live in Bradford but have never wanted to approach any of the monks they see. Odd to me because I will talk to (almost) anyone.
