Went to mass in St. Joseph’s. The church looked like many an Irish church built in the early twentieth century. Parochial House looked simailar also except that it had a veranda. Mass was similar. Congregation tended to stand more than they knelt. Great choir and many of the congregation sang along. At communion everyone seemed to go. They went up the middle and down the sides, even if they were at the front of the side pews. Choice of both bread and wine. Enclosed congregation area at the back which included an area for serving light refreshments. Not used-I should have told them that I was coming!
Too hot to go out. Watched American football on the telly and went to the beach after four. Spent a nice relaxing few hours there, again due to the evening breeze. Watered the grass and flowers-a lot of flowers.
