I stayed at a hostel right by there. It is a very cool church indeed.

Hey I can't get CP to work for me at home these days (technical issues as described in this thread). Posting now from my parents' house. Maybe we could have the runner-up (Johnny B) administrate the next contest? I am unable to do it.

Thanks for the votes!

Well, Cow was really the runner-up, not me. Perhaps he should have the honours.
