The odd thing about this sitcom is that it was so popular in the day but seems to have had no lasting cultural impact. Nobody ever quotes from it or remembers any particular episodes, it just sank without trace.

Birds of a Feather, what were their husbands inside for?

@gcraven10 There are several shows like that. As Time Goes By, Just Good Friends, Don’t Wait Up, Ever Decreasing Circles. Nothing wrong with them, good casts, and seemingly always on the telly, but they were rather like comedy soap operas really more than true situation comedies 📺

@TheCharismaVoid @gcraven10 The lager mitt? The pickled chilli? The camping trip? C’mon man 😕

@gcraven10 I’d (controversially?) put Men Behaving Badly in that bracket too.

What is the single funniest line Wodehouse ever wrote? No wrong answers, only joy.

@lastenglishking @SimoninSuffolk Doesn’t matter about your conscience. Just attend.
You don’t have to believe. Just attend.
You don’t have to like it. Just attend.
Just attend. You will become part of the solution.

@SimoninSuffolk In all good conscience, I would find it difficult to attend or support the Anglican Church, but I do think medieval churches should be preserved for the sake of their history.
English
As one of many of us who isn't Anglican, but still thinks medieval churches should be saved, sarky comments like this really annoy me. Just saying.

Really unknown little tip here but the way you save churches isn’t by meaningless legislation but by going to them. One to keep in your back pocket that.

Photos of one of the most stunning models you’ll ever see. Old London Bridge, on display inside The Church of St Magnus the Martyr, which used to be at the entrance to the old bridge. The moved the new London Bridge several metres further up river. If you look very carefully at the model, there’s a policeman in it. He’s the guy who built the model.

All are very welcome to our midweek Lenten retreat at St Andrew’s, Holborn on Wednesday 4 March (6.30–9.00 pm). A quiet evening centred on prayer and reconciliation.
Come along, bring a friend, and experience God’s mercy this Lent!

In the process of revising the Deanery mailing list this morning it occurs to me that people might be more excited about church if we had a transfer window for clergy - eg X is lined up to be Dean of Norwich but only if St Albans can bring in a replacement evangelical by 7pm.

Does anyone know any decent, five week, courses that can be used in groups? And zero woke nonsense please. Quite enough of that everywhere else.
English
Trying to find a good bible study for a Lent Course is a complete pain. Either they're politicised and all about climate change or something equally tiresome, or it's actually a daily study, or it's too long for Lent, or it hardly touches on the Bible.

@DuncanSimms An excellent one today in a psalm: “they are inclosed in their own fat”

New Year’s resolution is to pray at least one daily office each day. Am using an app to help me, but any tips on how to do it well without feeling like a bit of a wally just sitting whispering it all to myself?

@RevThomasSander Are you suggesting that those are not Charlie’s abs?
