Having said that, he used to keep his bicycle clips hung around the baby Jesus... Another previous vicar had a shrine of a different sort. He owned 10 shares in a certain well known football club - and his framed share certificate had pride of place on his bookshelf, the first thing you saw as you walked into his study.

Sadly, I tripped over "Aunt Sue" on entering, who was in an urn in a box but remained relatively intact.

A close second are pictures of all his grandchildren. A precariously positioned wireless network adapter has to be walked around to save the cable connection. In the curate's is a large comfy sofa and a PC wth every whistle and bell imaginable. There is also a large telescope but what it is used for apart from holding the vicar scarves is a mystery. And in the youth pastors? A fridge full of water and pepsi max, a decent amp and set of speakers which connect to a beat up old pc. The best though is my father in laws study (he's a vicar) which has a great lazeeboy, large TV and hidden beer stash. Hope this helps In the vicars study is a wide selection of camels, mostly of the soft toy variety. A close second are pictures of all his grandchildren.
