After a successful day yesterday we were eager to begin our morning and experience all that was in store today. Despite being rather tired from the excitement of yesterday we all rose at 7:45am and went downstairs for the usual small breakfast of Kippers, full english or eggs benedict. After stocking up from our bankers we set out in the glorious sunshine to Saint Thomas' Church to sing Eucharist where we had a brilliant service which consisted of an amazing solo by
Jack A and two young men read the readings excellently (guess which two handsome gents read!). Once we finished the service, we returned to the hotel for a delicious lunch. Today this was duck pâté, followed by a roast dinner and finished off with chocolate mousse. With our belly's full we spent our afternoon relaxing in the hotel playing cards, talking and watching the football. Meanwhile, Harry ventured to Ramsey early to begin his organ work. At around three o'clock we all set off to Ramsey and prepared for the masses of food that we were about to be presented with. Let's just say, we were not disappointed! The word generous cannot even begin to describe how much food we were greeted with. There were mountains of sandwiches, lakes of juice and country's of cakes. Now with our tummies full we staggered into the service. After two great readings by Finlay W and Patrick H we experienced two brilliant solos by Jack A and Thomas W which rounded off yet another busy but successful day and our backdrop was a gorgeous sunset seen from the mountain road.
Thank you for reading and please come back for an update tomorrow.
