Why did Tony Blair get a private audience to view the relics of St Therese of Lisieux at Westminster Cathedral as reported in the press today ? Excuse the pun, but isn’t that entirely against the spirit of her visit to London ? A bit of queueing and a lot of reflection might well be the best thing for his soul.
A friend of mine went to the Cathedral last night and stood in line for over two hours waiting to go in. She overheard a woman behind her in the queue asking her husband – who was going to fetch a takeaway from the nearby MacDonalds - to see if there was a ‘MacRelic’ burger on sale.
Ahem – I think you got it the wrong way round. The relics of St Therese were granted a private audience with Saint Tony.
I wonder if the burger was served with tomato relics?
St Therese of Lisieux sounds like an amazing young woman from what I read about her.
