Minor Rush

Palm Sunday started with a donkey.
The congregation met at the tea rooms together with the Bishop of Worcester. Yes, really.
They started the service in the garden and then sang the short walk up to the Church following a donkey. The bloke who was leading her was a little concerned:
"Will there be someone up there to stop her?" he asked, "because when she starts going, she just goes." The Bishop said that made a change as usually when he does this service the donkey refuses to go anywhere.
When the congregation returned for tea the place was rammed with Morris enthusiasts. Cars, not dancers.
Two different groups had turned up on the same day in their Morris somethings.
And they needed caffeine.
