The Lord Black to employ them and the current owners (rather dreadful vulgarians) don't care for that kind of thing. <br /><br />There are simply not the massive profits in the old media from advertising - Google and the online advertising revolution have changed things utterly in every way. <br /><br />No one would get a shirt made at T M Lewin these days, anyway. amrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06989069072691867142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7192383188921258891.post-72621946074391127902011-12-20T11:24:43.002-06:002011-12-20T11:24:43.002-06:00I'll have to do my homework.

(I know I'm getting in way over my head here...but that's what makes this type of cultural learning environment fun!) True, most of the congregation doesn't really understand what is going on, but there is a rather growing sect of young (and not so young) Christian intellectuals who are calling for a return to ritual. I would love to write more about this, but need to study-up quite a bit before putting my foot in it.Old Knockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16770462562022563029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7192383188921258891.post-38766473567116327042011-12-20T09:32:15.224-06:002011-12-20T09:32:15.224-06:00Hello:

We can readily identify with the Young [Old] Fogey and do believe that we could be the last surviving of the species in England today. Seeing on a recent video that no-one stood for the Hallelujah Chorus in Handel's Messiah [as indeed King George led the way so many years ago] we now recognise that we are two specimens of a dying breed!!!!Jane and Lance Hattatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831890261259302647noreply@blogger.com
