Re: Will Dobbie be defrocked?
Nice response Katherine.
Probably means, "Now, don't be a naughty little pervy vicar/father and ogle little boys/girls. And whatever you do, don't fiddle with em."
Hey Ho!

To be fair to him, John, the question was probably above his pay grade!

Defrocking is a lot easier now than it was in my day (and possibly JR's) when there were stockings, suspenders, girdles and the threat of pregnancy. Youngsters today don't know how lucky they are.

Re: Will Dobbie be defrocked?
I seem to remember Shrewsbury School also publishing a note saying Dobbie had "retired".
Right opposite Dobbie's name in that link, I see an advert: "We seek an experienced safeguarding professional to advise the Diocese in all aspects of safeguarding children and vulnerable adults" ... couldn't make it up.

There is retirement and there is retirement not that this man is likely to be lucky.AMP wrote: ↑Fri May 29, 2020 7:09 pm Looks like he retired?

Back in the late 1930's the Revd. Francis Joseph Stone M.V.O. who had been a schoolteacher "retired". He then became prebendary chaplain to HM The Queen Ellizabeth, charged with the ministry at her personal chapel in Windsor Great Park. Whilst there he carried out all the acts of a Church of England priest - baptisms, Holy Communion and other normal services (but I can't speak for funerals). Still holding that post he died at the age of 76 in November 1947. Retired????
