On Tuesday evening a reception was held at Angela and Grant Murray’s home for Alan and Pam Hayday who were passing through Bahrain. Alan was my predecessor as Dean. It was quite reassuring to discover how many people from three years ago in this transitory community are still in Bahrain and in the Cathedral.
They were clearly happy to be back, if briefly, to meet up with friends but are also clearly enjoying the more relaxed pace of retirement. |
