Six months ago yesterday I arrived at Saint Gabriel’s, Prestonpans, as parish priest. Since then, this blog has been woefully neglected, with only six posts in as many months; in fact, I haven’t even been posting the comments I have received (-my apologies for that). Inevitably, settling in has taken some time. I was more than twelve years in the Saint Mungo’s community, and this is my first experience of living alone. The life of a solitary priest in an almost-country parish is certainly not stressful, but it is constant. However, having got through the first six months, I do intend to try to find some time for Laus Crucis in the future.
