I wonder if a certain Fr from Dundee will be swimming up the Tiber?

TAC is a kind of inverse pyramid, I think – 10 bishops to every 2 priests, and 2 priests to every laywoman. (No laymen, because they’re all in Holy Orders.) The Archbishop, an Australian, is (I believe) a divorced and remarried ex-Roman.

Yes, I’ve only ever heard of TAC bishops rather than ordinary members.

Where was this one, Fr G?

Please don’t leave yourself much guesswork as to the identity of Fr. [X], will you? I don’t think he’d be swimming the Tiber, do you? After all, isn’t he some kind of Catholic/Pentecostal/Calvinist?

I met a TAC bishop recently, so they do have some people.

>>>I�ve not heard of any Episcopal clergy in Scotland interested in taking up the offer. It is said that the Traditional Anglican Communion is joining up. But then I�ve never heard of them nor do I know anyone who knows anyone who claims to be a member.

Hmm, I’d thought that Fr.[X] might be up for swimming the tiber.
