Sunday

Another coughing (coffin) night. So we didn't even make it to church at 11. Finally got going and went to the Museum via the City Circle Bus. This one had a real person rather than the commentary and she told us where to get off ie which stop we needed.
I usually love museums but was still short of oomph. Was glad that my seniors card got us free entry. Wandered up to Lygon Street to see all the eateries and found out that the pizza place(Toto's) where David got pizza is supposed to be the first pizzeria in Australia - in the 60s.
We chose to eat Lamb Kebabs which turned out to be what I'd call Yiros but tasty all the same.
Then a much needed nap.
We walked to the city centre for the Wesley Church service at 7. Reminded me of the evening service in Brisbane we went to earlier inthe year. A few faithful folk scattered in a huge historic building with galleries and pipe organ. Maybe I was tired but it really didn't connect. They are eveidently keen to explore ways to be different given the constraints of the building.
When it came time to pass the peace (which i don't much like) I felt the need to sprint up the steps to the guy in the gown at the organ console. He did come down for communion.
The order of service hinted politely that we should sit and listen to the organ music at the end of the service but after a decent interval we snuck out and sought refuge at McDonald's with a coffee.
