I went to say goodbye to the priest, and then I turned and walked towards the door. The priest followed me, so I turned to him again, and he said something like: "You might want to rearrange your skirt!" Did he say it in Latin ???? Mea culpa! CARLO

As the basket approached, my 22 month old grandson said in a loud voice "MORE money!" He was actually asking for another coin, but it sounded like a exclamation of horror. Quite embarrassing for his mum! Eileenanne

No wonder they needed 5 collections since the Church in Holland imploded in the wake of silly trendiness during this period which is well documented. It's a wonder they didn't need 50 collections!

A few years later, before V2, I attended another church in Holland and the prices of use of the benches were along the walls and there was a police notice that it was verboden to stand at the back. Surprisingly it was most expensive to sit at the front and it got cheaper as you went away from the Sanctuary. It should have been the reverse!
