Me too. Rather a cross between Alice in Wonderland and Salvador Dali.
Fr. Guy—if that’s one of your favorites, I’d suggest you not admit it to your collegues at the AIH—and certainly not as a model for your next parish arms!

Yes indeed, but these official descripitons (they are not strictly blazons) tends to be a bit cumbersome as they where, I guess, written to be understod by those who have no knowledge of Heraldry.
