Re: Linguistic tic's and crutches
She once chaperoned us on a retreat to Ilkley in Yorkshire. I was shocked to my core!
I had always been taught to hold nuns as sainted, unworldly creatures who were as close to God as it was possible to get while still breathing and should be treated accordingly.
My illusions were shattered when she insisted that we should set to and clean the monastery accomodation we were staying in from top to bottom - or else! And then...
to indicate the seriousness of her intent....
she seized the hem of the front of her habit....
and hitched it up under her belt.
beneath she wore a second habit, equally as black as the first, but so filthy and stained it looked as though she used it for washing floors with.
I admit the experience has scarred me for life. I cannot now look at a nun without wondering about the state of her undergarments. What would you recommend doctor?
