Holy igloo at Blackfen


We have had a little snow in this part of the world. Not much by the standards of many of my readers in the US, Helsinki and suchlike, but we have schools closed, railway stations deserted, businesses closed and the usual British "terribly surprised" attitude to snow in winter.

One of my families in the parish like to build igloos at this time of year. As you can see above, it is a distinctively Catholic igloo.

Mary, Joseph and the infant Jesus inside?
Make a nice idea for a Nativity scene. Great igloo!

Ideal for the Transalpine Redemptorists !!!

Dear "vetusta ecclesia". Just a pencil sketch at this stage and Fr. Finigan thought it was "too Gothic".

How hilarious really cheered me up to see the holy igloo! Well done I like the use of the left over flags from the Pope's visit in September too. Love this blog

Love the picture how resourceful to use the left over flags from the Pope's visit in September! Like the comment about the British being 'surprised' by snow-how true it is. When will we ever learn!

Hope you advised them to turn off the central heating!

Thanks, Rose, but what's with the "Lower back pain blog" link? Is that you or some kind of spam adjunct to your comment?
