nice like it

A very nice effect, Kathleen. On one level you have the outlines of a 'Maltese' cross ( used by the Knights of St. John of Malta - originally a military order, but now involved in charitable works, and providing first aid at charity and sports matches throughout England in the St. John's Ambulance Service. Up here in Scotland we have the St. Andrew's Ambulance Service, named after our country's patron saint. ) On the other hand, this imagge also reminds me of stirring brandy sauce, one evening for a communal student meal in the hughe kitchen at our old chaplaincy, many, many moons ago.. My twin brother was helping out with the trifle and other sweet / dessert dishes, and was asked to test how it tasted. Unfortunately he had been chopping up onions for the soup, and his sense of smell was somewhat blunted. He added a lot more sherry into the trifle than it should really have had... Needless to say everyone wanted seconds that night... ;o) Warm regards as Mary's Son approaches, John.
