What a pity that the two feathered visitors to the large meeting house
during a session on truth and inclusivity were not doves, giving our
gathering that sense of peace and harmony
we so desired. No such luck. They were common or garden London feral
pigeons who breached the security and got in through an open window.
Eye wasn't in the room at the time but understands the creatures soon
saw that the location was an unpromising food source and beat a hasty
retreat.
Friends might have recalled an earlier ministry at BYM when a Friend
described seeing a woman sitting by the statue of Eros in Piccadilly
Circus, covered in pigeons she was feeding. 'Feed the birds' was the
ministry.
