Explanation of Celtic body prayer - history
Celtic Body Prayer led by Philip Roderick. 20 -25 minutes; "in addition it would be fun to teach some of my syncopated Afro-Celtic chants accompanied by "Man with a Box" i.e. me with an African drum and cardboard box! I could teach one two or three chants and these would take another 20 mins. They are in contemplative vein and are a sort of sung lectio divina."

Curry at Tandoori Villa at midnight for the team. We didn't do as much food in the post-service cafe then so we could be very hungry by the time we'd taken down and locked up. |
