There's been a couple of interesting developments on the church search front.
I received an email today from a member of Partick Trinity, taking a soupçon of umbrage at the review I wrote about it on March 26. I was given this helpful advice:
"I'm sorry that you did not find the pews comfortable; they were designed for sitting up and paying attention not for sleeping. I have been sitting in these pews for quite a few years now and while I agree they are not the most comfortable pews in the world I don't think they are as bad as you make out…. Possibly your posture is wrong… try sitting up straight."
Which is nice.
The second thing is that there has been one late, and definitely final, entry into round 1, and then I will start to draw some initial conclusions. A friend of mine in Canada, Ebby, who studied in Glasgow, was desperately trying to remember the baptist church in Queen's Park she really enjoyed going to (yes, it made that much of an impression on her). She just recently emailed me to say she'd remembered its name: Queen's Park Baptist Church. I fear Ebby has been working too hard lately.
So that's my destination on Sunday, which will involve another trip over to the southside. Rumour has it they eat their children over there.
