Michael Johnson Michael sends his thanks and best wishes to the Cathedral community following the safe delivery of the garden furniture he ordered with the collection offered when he departed as Acting Dean. He’s very much looking forward to using them when the weather turns warmer next year. He will be able to do so when he is not busy with his new role in the Diocese, as it was recently announced that he has been appointed by the Bishop as Associate Archdeacon, which he will take up on 4 January for one year. Congratulations, Michael!
