Notes for Sunday 12 October 2025

Dear friends,

There is an error in the notes attached that we can unfortunately not correct: please note that tickets for the murder mystery play are only available by contacting Corinne and NOT through the Capel Box Office.

The picture today is of a ship on display in the Chatham historic dockyard that was built in the mid 19th century. Steam power was increasingly used but wind power was still superior as long as there was wind so this ship was built to use either. This original three master (it has lost the front one) could fall back on steam when the weather was too calm but its top speed was only reached under sail. When the sails were in use the funnel would be lowered.

Have a lovely week and God bless,

Dineke van den Bogerd
