I am always moved when it is Maundy Thursday (tomorrow) and the night of the Last Supper, when Jesus washed the feet of his disciples to show that no man was more important than any other.
I have been looking at Leonardo's masterpiece of the same name.

Aoestre
So Easter is almost here, and I am loving the sight of spring lambs and daffodils.
It's a time to get excited about the thought of summer, and I can even smell the first bbq of the year going on next door.
In true British fashion, though, it's set to rain over the weekend.
My daughter turned 16 the other week and, in a mad moment, I agreed to a teenage party. Friends warned me of the horror stories concerning alcohol, and how some angry Dads had taken to removing carrier bags from youngsters before letting them into the house.
Anyhow, there was no excessive drinking, (we made sure of that) and a surprisingly well behaved bunch of kids had a great time doing nothing more wild than having a game of football in the dark!
Happy Easter one and all.
