Then it happened again, and this time he wasn't the first to find it.

There was a group of 10 Chinese people, and they were sort of like taking a photograph, selfies as it were.

And I looked up and thought, "Good gracious me, there's a lamb hanging from the top of the cross." Rather like a lady's fox fur draped over the top of the cross.

That did cause some of the parishioners a minute of distress.

[gentle music] There is a coda to Father Simon's story after his comments about sausages hit the news.

I got to the church, and, and they're balanced along the top of the notice board directly outside the church were 10 cheap sausages.

He obviously got a bit upset with the fact I'd asked for venison sausages, and I thought, "Well, he obviously didn't listen." You know, they're gonna give me something of quality at least, not cheap ones, for goodness sake.
