Tonight, Fr Leo Heriot’s brother, Fr Lou, thoroughly entertained us during our dinner! His jovial expression of stories and anecdotes was captivating! He showed us how to be youthful in mind though he celebrates his 84th Birthday tomorrow! The ‘Good old Days’ of Seminary life were tough ... with studies in Latin, Magnum Silentium, and peer evaluation!
Fr Lou told a story of when he was asked to smuggle food to a needy family across the Berlin Wall while under the vigilance of the Border Guards. Another tale was when his fellow seminarians made a hoax phone call to get a senior staff member out of bed (after his strict 9pm curfew!) to attend the Bishop in hospital who had a broken leg. In fact, the Bishop was fast asleep at home!
Our Dining Room lights were dimmed and in came the smallest birthday cake I have ever seen, the size of a 50c piece! The little candle was bigger than the cake! All in the spirit of Lent! Fr Lou kindly halved the cake with his brother!
