I couldn't let the 25th January pass by without saying something about Burns' Night and something about Saint Paul's Conversion.
First of all, unlike what I hear from other people, all we have in our family is the haggis, neeps n tatties and maybe perhaps possibly recite one of his poems (my favourites are To A Mouse and Tam O' Shanter). There's no ceremonial about the thing either.

Secondly, I'd like to wish everyone all the best for the feast of the Conversion of Saint Paul, the Apostle to the Gentiles (that's us, folks). Furthermore, I think the feast reminds us that we need to constantly return to the Lord, asking for his help and seeking his mercy, and trying to love him in return.
