On Sunday, the initial count of fresh eggs, collected for the needy came up at 99 1/2 dozen. There was disappointment in the pews, because traditionally, we at St Mark's had always made our target of 100 dozen eggs. But then Irvine Florence who was on door duty, was given two more two more shopping bags and suddenly we were on 102 1/2 half dozen eggs.
That total grew by another dozen on Monday. The Men for the Master's executive meeting was drawing to a close at 11h00, in the A S Welsh Hall, when a couple of taps on the window attracted the attention of the men. There was Carlos, a friend of Muriel Jackson's, with yet another shopping bag. Muriel is unwell, but St Mark's traditions die hard with the faithful. Thank you Muriel for purchasing those eggs and thank you Carlos for delivering them.. So the total is now 103 dozen, with "change."
