Account -story...?
1997
The National Pilgrimage for us was a multiple-story.
1.
It was the 16th Centenary
of St. Ninian, 1997.
2.
7 or 8 of Nunraw travelled to the
celebration..
3.
The Presbytery of the Wigton
Church welcomed to hospitality overnight.
4.
Early morning, on the drive, BBC
Radio had the NEWS, “Diana, Princess of Wales, is killed after her car crashes in a Paris underpass -
the driver and her friend Dodi Fayed are also dead”, Spoken by
Cardinal Winning.
5.
That ‘story’ remains with us and the memory of Princess Diana.
