Eye has had the unenviable task of being the editor's minder at BYM.
We had to watch that she didn't refer to Friends milling around FH as
'conference delegates' or use any of those nasty secular journalistic
phrases she is prone to uttering. Our nerves were wrecked by the end
of the cliffhanger session on small trusteeship. ' Just as I got the
message that meeting for business was also worship', we overheard her
say 'the business and the vision thing are being split up.' We fear
we have a long way to go with this editor.
