The church ...............
............... of St John and St Mary on a very damp Saturday morning.
In the extras: 1) A view across the countryside from near Swell, Somerset (taken on Friday morning), 2) a HUGE and beautiful cockerel outside a shop in Devizes and 3) the privately owned Devizes Castle .
I'd hoped for a sunny Saturday as Devizes is a lovely and very old market town but the weather gods were against me.

Smile for the Day:
Mildred, the church gossip and self-appointed monitor of the church's morals, kept sticking her nose into other people's business. Several members did not approve of her activities, but feared her enough to maintain their silence.
She made a mistake, however, when she accused Frank, a new member, of being an alcoholic after she saw his old pickup parked in front of the town's only bar one afternoon. She emphatically told Frank (and several others) that everyone seeing it there would know what he was doing!
Frank, a man of few words, stared at her for a moment and just turned and walked away. He didn't explain, defend, or deny. He said nothing.
Later that evening, Frank quietly parked his pickup in front of Mildred's house ... walked home ... and left it there all night.
