I spent the whole afternoon in the Victoria and Albert Museum. Incredible.
One of the things I like about the museum are the hand’s on exhibits.
Here is your chance to try a reversal of the old adage about the iron fist in the velvet glove.

“This blog is rather like a fusion of the Baroque ‘salon’ with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West “saloon” with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven.” - Fr. Z

That. Is. Awesome. I’m incredibly jealous. So cool, Father.
It was very comfortable and flexible.
But… imagine this all over.
Well I may never be a Bishop Father but whilst i was in America I created an alter ego – Cardianal Von Dracula; a Traddy Prelate if there ever was one :), coming soon to blog format
From one Minnesotan to another – Imagine slipping on the ice! Father has fallen, and he can’t get up!
I don’t know why I’m imagining priests in suits of armor on the hockey rink.
Thank you, Agnes, for a mental image which will stay with me for awhile!
Agnes:
LOL!
You need to travel to the National Museum of Iceland in Reykjavik, where you can dress as a Viking raider in full mail with sword & shield.
Not like I have a picture or two of me doing that….
Whoa, that IS very cool, Father!
I wouldn’t want to be in a fight with that iron glove, though; could inflict some ‘verrrry ‘serious damage!
I never got to the V & A on any of my trips to England…the hands-on exhibits look like fun!
