I saw that one Auntieflo I rather liked the idea that the statue of St. Barbara would stay underground. It's an incredible enterprise isn't it? So massive and yet so much of it is done a few inches at a time.
Is it normal to talk to yourself?

Oxford bish. He started it all, back in 2012. In Deddington.
They're all at it! Hereford one. With a nice matching hat. Sweet.
Totally barmy. 
(I think it's him being irreverant!)
I shouldn't be irrevent, but I must say he does look as if he may have flown up there
I'm picturing him now with a hard hat, on a bungee jump thing, with a 
in his hand.
Why did he need to go up there to bless them? Couldn't he have sent blessings up from the ground?
At first, on reading the OP, I thought he bungee jumped up there. But he didn't,did he?
I second DaphneBroon's post. I try to run the washing machine and the dishwasher and do the ironing when the sun is shining. If there is plenty of sunshine on a winter's day the ground source heat pump runs too - using all that lovely solar energy.
There is a photo in today's Times of the Very Reverend Steven Lake, Dean of Gloucester, blessing the solar panels that have been installed on the roof of the nave of the cathedral.
I don't think I understand blessing. What a wacky thing to do!
Don't get me wrong. I'm not complaining, just saying I think it's a wacky thing to do... like bungee jumping to dip a biscuit in a cup of tea 75 metres below and stuff like that.
Of course, it goes without saying (as the saying goes), I respect people's right to do harmless wacky things. I don't necessarily respect the things though, whatever their entertainment value. This one's high on the weird entertainment value list 
.
Oh yes, the icing on the cake is that he's wearing a hard hat. In case the sky falls, I suppose
