Dear Judith,
I wonder would you be willing to talk about your experiences of making kneelers at the Cathedral? I am currently working on an oral history project at the Cathedral and I am very keen to capture the memories of the women who made kneelers. I think the role of women in the early days of the Cathedral is really important so would be keen to speak with you. Please do let me know if you would be interested.
Best wishes

Hi Helen,
Please note that the date on Judith's message was from 2001. I doubt
that she will see this message.

If worries can cure your sickness, prolong your life, or replace
happiness, then go ahead and worry! If they can't, why worry?

Enjoy every moment of your life...there is no second chance.
