It's September 16th...

So there are now more details published about the Pope's visit to the UK in September. As we thought, he won't be coming to Wales, but he will be beatifying Cardinal Newman. There is a new site specially dedicated to everything you want to know about the visit, helpfully called http://www.thepapalvisit.org.uk/. Unlike the visit of John Paul II in 1982, this is a state visit, so he'll be popping in on Her Majesty who'll be up in Scotand at the time.  The visit runs from September 16 - 19, ie exactly six months away, so no doubt we will be hearing a lot more over the next months.
Oh, and it's just turned midnight - so happy St Patrick's Day!
