I watched his sermon on youtube and I thought it was good and full of energy and its just who he is and how he gives his sermons.

Suppose for some royals they may have not experienced such a sermon before and unsure how to react.

I also liked it!

Most Brits will never have heard a sermon like that!!

It isn't unusual in the Episcopalian Church in the US, especially when you have a black preacher although some white preachers can achieve the same energy level.

Our Religious Instruction teacher when I started high school in the UK back in the 50s was a tub-thumping Welsh Methodist! Boy, could he get up the rhetoric if we got him going, giving his desk some good thumps along the way ...... and apparently he was the same on Sunday in church.


Martin Luther King is the prime example that comes to my mind ................ he was a magnificent speaker, but also a preacher of the same ilk.

You probably didn't try to copy a picture directly into a post. I did it once with an attachment and it worked so gave it a shot. Otherwise the button is there as normal. Who else besides me said they didn't have one?

I haven't heard anyone else report they don't have an edit button, but I could have missed it. I have one :angel_smile:

The only smirk I saw was on this one, proving that money does not equal class:
I was sad because I had no shoes, and then I met a man with no class.

I'll (hopefully) encase it in spoiler tags for now Caretaker.
Once IB have seen and taken stock, I'll get rid for you.

I am not a chick flic viewer or someone who usually says 'ahh' but this pair made me feel warm and good. A cracking Bishop Currie and super young Musician just added more sparkle. A thoroughly enjoyable spectacle that Britain does so very well.

p.s. this new format won't let me correct my typos...a most unfriendly piece of kithttps://britishexpats.com/forum/imag...ies/unsure.gif


Millie .............. I have the same Edit button as before on the bottom line, next to the Quote tab. I tried it on my last message, and it let me make a change. But I think you have a limited time.

I liked that it was a modern wedding. It showed the royal family are really in touch with the people and not so stuffy anymore. Especially the horse drawn carriage, that was a nice nod to modernity.

Needed an orange triangle like dbd33's Mennonites.

At.last! There were rumours she had already given birth in secrecy, but I think that was just the media making all that up as they do.

Daily mail readers livid as glimpse of royal baby not enough to make a judgement on its skin tone.
