My Dad, Dylan, along with Aidan (cream suited chap) made/painted an icon of St. Peter and St. Paul which was given as a gift by the Archbishop of Canterbury to the new Pope of Rome. Tom spent a long time seeking permission to allow us to view the icon in the Vatican, only to find out it was kept by the Pope in his private chamber. In recompense for us not being able to see it, they invited the above, Claire and me to The Vatican to meet the Holy Father. We’ve just finished, and it was a pretty incredible experience
