Some more amusing items from earlier Nantwich newsletters:

Law'n'Order

I saw my neighbour steal my socks off my washing line. I was going to confront him but I got cold feet.

Just found a plain clothes officer in my spare bed. It seems he's working under cover.

I want to make an insurance claim for my stolen watch. Unfortunately, I don't have the time.

Police arrested two youths for stealing car batteries and some fireworks. They've charged one and let the other off.

Have you heard of the judge with no thumbs? Mr. Justice Fingers.

I was in court the other day. The jury was described as "Twelve Good Men and True", but I think they must have dismissed True because there were definitely only twelve of them.

You are invited to join in with our autumn online course, 'Living in Love and Faith'.

The course is being run in Church of England churches up and down the country at this time. It is a national project giving us all the chance to reflect more deeply on what it means to be human people, loved by God and loving each other. It helps us talk together about complex issues such as sexuality, relationships and identity.

It may be you have been waiting for some time for these issues to be discussed in your church community. It may be that you have never chatted to another person about your thoughts on these matters. We will all be coming from different places and so the group will be a place of careful listening, careful talking and support.

The course booklet entitled 'Living in Love and Faith' can be purchased from www.chpublishing.co.uk

Tuesday evenings at 7.30pm in November on Zoom for an hour. Here are the dates: 2nd, 9th, 16th, 23rd and 30th November. Please contact Rev Alison for the log in details at revalisonfulford@hotmail.co.uk
