Late arrivals at the Liturgists' Ball

Well it does to the people who post here... dispassionate and reasoned debate, with a good deal of humour thrown in for good measure.

Look - there´s that group of women who sit at the back - (Maarit, Maureen, Marie, Maria, Marika, Marion, Mercedes, Moira, Marilyn and Marietta). Good to see them here, they´re getting on a bit, although it´s surprising to see them talking to the parish priest - they can't stand him. But Glory Be! - it looks as though our Fr's made his peace with the ten hale Marys.

Would you please welcome a section of the choir: don't upset any of these formidable ladies: the sopranos are a real local mafia.

Don't they sing with the choir of that terribly sneaky red-hatted priest? Cardinal Rat's Singers?

. . . and may I introduce Mr. and Mrs. gathering-rite and their young son. Their son may want to sprinkle salt-water over everyone but try and be understanding, he has Asperges Syndrome.

If these late arrivals don't hurry up, we'll have moved on to play the next round - Morning Prayer Crescent!

Is that standard Roman Office rules then or is Cranmer's variant allowed? Please inform all playing if you are using Septuagint or Hebrew numbering.

Sorry, Merseysider. Your post contravenes house rule #2 and is off-topic to boot - Musicus

See! (ref to another thread!) Pure pornography and no bleep! Whereas, if Mr Balls had been in the corner smoking a fag there have been a bleep! Just like that one!

Since I have modded the post to which Merseysider refers, the least I can do is confirm that none of it attracted any automatic bleeps. :?
