Your Bike in front of a Church

[Blue Hills]

At the risk of a diversion from piccies, the actual service is in latin or just a few words/a bit of chanting? I thought the full latin mass went in the early 60s after the initiative of the bloke the italians call "the good pope".
Edit, you meant this catholic church in york is the catholic equivalent of those high church c of e places, ie hankering after past habits?

Yes a hankering for the past and yes some are still done in Latin. Your right they did go in the 60's but a branch carried on regardless.

I hope they don't continue the catholic mass tradition of praying for the salvation of/damning the jews. I think that went in the early 60s as well in the mainstream places.

who knows they are not exactly known for being an open organisation.

Somewhere in Oxfordshire last summer. So many churches.....

Little Snoring Church, Norfolk. One of a small number of churches with a detached tower.

No bike but what about this?

Malaga cathedral last weekend. They appear to be taking a while finishing the second tower off.

Ta for reply, thought it might be related to the sound it made when ridden/your fearsome slipstream.

It is from a character from Captain Beaky and his band from 1975 /76. Hissing Sid was a snake. The story was written by Jeremy Lloyd. There was also a record and 8 track cassette.

All Saints in Wickham Market

And for those that like a bit of detail, it has an outside bell

From warmer days in Sunny Spain, hard to imagine being too hot cycling, right now, in the present soggy cold rain.
