Compliments

Part of my job is to to an all-age slot in the first part of the service on Sunday mornings.

A couple of weeks ago an older member of the congregation told me that my talk was the Mickey Mouse part of the service.

Thanks a lot, I thought to myself.

However, he then elaborated: When he was a small boy he went to the cinema every Saturday morning and the programme included a serial, a western, the main feature and a Mickey Mouse cartoon. He liked Mickey Mouse so he looked forward to that bit the most because it was funny.

I think that's a compliment....
