Dear God,
My book is out and I'm in the dog box. Tom says I've ruined his authority at St Jude's with the bit about his Tom and Jerry underpants and his penchant for Sugar Puffs.
The boys say their girlfriends have dropped them like hot cakes and that they'll never leave home with a mother like me who reveals all.
And there's a deathly hush from St Jude's congregation who are slowly going into shock as a single copy does the rounds.
The only bright light is John Taylor, the Bishop of St Alban's, who thinks it's 'Brilliant ----amusing and moving'. There's a gift of discernment for you, God.

PS. Mother doesn't like my photo. Says it makes me look like Auntie May who ran away with a Roman Catholic Jewish corset salesman.
With wit and warmth Audrey describes in her letters to God, life in the Grade 2 listed, crumbling, Georgian refrigerator, otherwise known as The Rectory. (The Church Times)
