Another beautiful day today, with the sun shining as I drove to the car park for church.
However, when I got out of the car I realised that I was unprepared for the blustery wind, which made the weather seem even colder than it really was.
The church has recently invested in a new boiler which has made a big difference to the heating inside. Additionally, over the winter months, you are asked to enter by one of the side doors, keeping the main entrance closed; As well as that, the call to worship and the procession in to the church of the choir, the minister and the elders takes place from the side rather than from the rear. This is less stately, but very effective in maintaining the heat.
The big main doors are opened at the end of the service, to assist the flow of people out of the church (which often is impeded by people like me using sticks, and needing to hold on to the bannister).

The image of hell as a hot place comes from the climates of the Middle East. The Norse know it as a cold place. I think the Scots know it as a Church with a failed heating system. Well done your place!
