He came to St Duvet & All Angels, Wymsey in 1977 after a very short curacy in the parish of Soho, London.
The church had long been the family trade and the Rev never had a chance. He studied divinity and Jungian symbolism at Cambridge and was ordained in 1976.

The Rev is not sporty but likes to spend mellow evenings in the Crown & Thorns, quietly sucking cough lozenges in between sips of Winter Brew.



The Rev Writes: "My elder brother Morstock is a mystery to me, currently Anglican Bishop of Tehran he came back to England for the Millennium. He said that it was a time to be with his family - that's me. The only good thing for me about his visit is his love of preaching sermons and on his arrival I gave him the keys to the church but I was glad to see him go - always was hyperactive.

Have you noticed how people will never leave you alone once they know you are a vicar? Probably not. Still I do detect an improvement as the older generation go to meet their Maker, at this rate I will be out of a job in 2010 which is when I'm due to retire."
