[Magdalen] Two to go

[Marion Thompson]

The other week when I happened to be subdeacon, our interim asked me to 
set the table slowly because the hymn being sung was one of his great 
favourites and he wanted to be able to enjoy the opportunity to sing 
it.  I understand that.  So many of my fave's are communion hymns and I 
rarely have a chance to just sing.  Not complaining, just saying. :-)
