She's got a chest infection and is running a slight temperature. Looking for a bit of sympathy and nursing I reckon.

I'm taking my time looking at my photos.
I took one in Saint Sulpice (Da Vinci Code) church where two chairs look like a poltergeist had placed them on top of each other.
They were on top of the Rose Line. Otherwise I might not have seen the line.
Those candlesticks did look too big to pick up. They were massive.
On one side of the wall above the Rose Line were the letters P & S and on the opposite wall were the letters S & S. One meant Saint Sulpice but what did the P & S mean?

Jodie said someone might have placed them on the line to draw attention to it. It was odd.
I'll look for it tomorrow.

I'm a better nurse than patient anyway so it's working out fine.
Mrs F. has some photos taken in that church too, I'll ask her about the inscriptions.

Those chairs were gone when I got back round again so they don't do it as a normal occurrance.

Doves - Cedar Room
Maybe that was the one I fell asleep to with the choir.
The inscriptions were on the stained glass windows at either side of the church at the end of the rose line.
I'm sure it said Sud to the left and Nord to the right (under the chairs) so that would make the window opposite me (SS) a West window and the window behind me (PS) an East window.
The people on the right are wondering what's happened. I didn't notice them when I took the picture.

This is the youtube version of the new Alex Jones movie.
I was only 15 minutes from the end when the GLP one cut out.
I'll just put it straight in here.

No need to ask Mrs F.
The Gnomon
In his novel, Dan Brown refers to the line as the "Rose-Line", as being the meridian line for Paris, mentions that the church was built on the site of an ancient pagan cult and places the location as the mystical axis for France. None of this is true.
From a note, posted in the church: "Contrary to fanciful allegations in a recent best-selling novel, this [the line in the floor] is not a vestige of a pagan temple. No such temple ever existed in this place. It was never called a Rose-Line. It does not coincide with the meridian traced through the middle of the Paris Observatory which serves as a reference for maps where longitudes are measured in degrees East or West of Paris. Please also note that the letters P and S in the small round windows at both ends of the transept refer to Peter and Sulpice, the patron saints of the church, and not an imaginary Priory of Sion."
This indicator line or gnomon, is a simple measuring tool, established in 1727, at the request of Mr Languet de Gercy, the priest of Saint Sulpice. This priest needed to know exactly the equinox of Mars and thus Easter Sunday. That is, the Sunday following the full moon after the spring equinox. What was asked to be done:
To raise a column of white marble,10.72 m. high (shown in Figure 7). To insert a meridian line made of brass, running from north to south (see Figure 8) To set-up a system of lenses at the south-end window, to shine a ray of light on the brass line. This system was intended to establish a number of other important astronomical parameters:
The rotation axis of the earth in regards to its orbit around the sun Observe if the moon was not causing a change in the earth's axis To verify if the air temperature affected the height of the sun for the winter solstice The day of the year when the earth is closest to the sun Find out the difference between the average time, as shown on clocks and the real time indicated by the passage of the sun on the line in the floor.

So it didn't say South and North then. I didn't even notice that obelisk but you can see it in my picture. They have their own pictures on that site. I was there.
There was another church there because it's shown on those plans.

All those obelisks aren't dotted around for nothing.
