Nun the Wiser

I was pottering around the garden earlier this evening, when I heard hymns from Croft Hill. I knew the source – at least once a week a small group of nuns and a priest climb the Hill for a “mini praise service”.  They are all black, and dressed in white.

I have met them a few times, and am on “hello” terms, but they are clearly not dog-people, which makes a more detailed conversation difficult.

About 2 hours later, as I was returning from a dog walk, this group, or so I thought, was descending the Hill. As I passed them by their cars, it was clearly a different and larger group, most dressed the same, but with two blokes in normal dress. One of these was having a loud and animated “discussion” with the priest in whatever their first language is.

All most intriguing. Is there tribal warfare on Croft Hill?
