Shock as Catholic appointed to Scottish see

(Hoping St Therese isn't reading the title)
Jacobus posts an excerpt from, and links to, the new bishop of Paisley's sermons. They are not earth-shatterlingly brilliant, being rather of the Scottish Utterly Bland school of preaching in tone, but the content appears to be occasionally, well, it appears that he occasionally says something! Hurray. Next, PB, having begun to celebratea according to the 1962 missal at least three times a week, and realised the error of his Holloways, is appointed to St A's and Edinburgh, the former incumbent having begged admission to Pluscarden.
