Should Katy and I start a blog called Two Green Cardigans ? We could have fun, pretending to be two holier than thou, do gooding old ladies, and we could talk about whether or not to use biological washing powder for Father's socks, because they pong even more since he took up jogging.

If you want to be a green cardigan you have to pretend to be an old woman. Ladylike qualities are not essential. Indeed they are, amongst the rank and file members of the Guild, quite rare. Come on Katy, do we do it? |

As a Theme Tune you could sing: "Ten Green Cardigans hanging on a wall...." |

Fr Finigan has a long post concerning another storm in the blogosphere
I found the post,archbishop-bloggers-not-part-of-church and the links included, a very interesting read. I read quite a lot of Catholic blogs and find them generally informative and useful, most bloggers take the trouble to check the facts before posting. Some,perhaps inevitably, seem to get carried away by their own view of their importance, but most of them are knowledgeable and fair. KatyA |

One in particular, a journalist, attacks, attacks, attacks, named bishops, presenting unsubstantiated claims as information received from sources. I wish some of the bishops would sue for defamation to teach that person a lesson. . |

Both of these blogs have been added to our list of Catholic websites. Has anybody used the list yet? SeanJ |

Brilliant blog karenjane and thanks for the link. If I had read this beforehand, I may have revised my postings on the priesthood thread! Will try to pluck up the courage to contribute John |

This is the best priest blog I have seen yet. It is gripping! There is nothing pretentious about Father Val, he does not ridicule people because they don't share his tastes and opinions in this, that or the other. Reading it, I felt as though he was talking to me. This blog makes me think. Try the January 2010 archives, to get a taste. http://jenico.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html |

Karen it is a pleasure to help spread the word. I emailed Father Val. He kindly gave permission for his blog articles to be quoted, in full, on the forum. The general custom is to acknowledge the source and give the link. |

I like this priest's style, I feel he is talking to me, in my language. Here is one of his Lenten items. http://www.jenico.blogspot.com/

It seems that trouble is brewing in the blogosphere, with threats of lawsuits in civil and church courts.
