Recordist's notes
Ten minute meditation in St Marys Minster Church. Parishioners chat as they leave the eucharist service, a till bleeps as Christmas cards are sold for charity on one side of the nave. On the other side, tea and biscuits are offered to visitors (Spaced pair of Sennheiser 8020s with SD MixPre6).
