Tradition at Woodbrooke
I'm staying at Woodbrooke this weekend.
They have a meeting for worship every day between 8:30 and 9:00, to which I
went this morning.

I was struck by how traditional it is. I didn't know any of the other
people attending, we didn't greet each other in any way (apart from a
handshake from the door keeper) but it seemed completely familiar. And
apart from changes in furniture or dress, it would have been the same for
many Quakers over the years.

We lived about 5 minutes up the road from there on our last sabbatical. I even had the opportunity to attend a class. It was wonderful. An engaging combination of deep thought and artistic engagement.

I passed by the university and wondered if you'd been near there.

Lovely place to visit. Great atmosphere, lovely grounds and stupendous food!

Link now corrected.
