God is gone up, up and away!

We had a very small choir with four parts but only two sopranos. Fortunately, the anthem was a hymn: 'The Lord ascendeth up on high' (Palace Green)

The vicar produced a helium balloon (during the sermon) which he pretended to let go of and it floated right up into the very high roof (except the choir could see the fine fishing line on the end securing it to the pulpit) and we drank champagne after the service with corks popping into the air. I think the vicar likes ascension day.
