Yes, I saw that.

I hope they are going to continue the monastic tradition of brewing excellent beer.

St Brigid, even though a Celtic nun, not a Benedictine, was a skillful brew(st)er, as was - I think - St Hildegard, the German genius.

It is a great story. Shameful treatment, but unsurprising. The administrative squalor and casual abuse of these communities is hard to stomach.

I should have said administrative malice. It is so frequent in what is called the "West".

It seems particularly focused on nuns and sisters. I have my theories.  Dodgy

Good on the nuns. I hope the convent can be made comfortable for them.
