Rector blesses villagers' pets
An unusual variety of worshippers gathered on Toddington's village green for a special service recently.

The congregation at the church service for pets included everything from tortoises to Yorkshire terriers, who had all been brought along by their owners for a special blessing.

The service was organised by the Rev Anne Crawford, rector at St George's Church in Toddington, so that the villagers could give thanks to God for the lives of their faithful companions.

Dogs were the mainstay, but one keen youngster was eager for insects to be embraced as well, and took along his pet woodlice.

Should worldwide tours of the Olympic flame be abandoned to stop giving protestors an easy target
Yes, it's a pointless stunt anyway and would not be missed
No, you can't give in to bully tactics from any quarter
Bring on more protests, they are more entertaining than the sport
