I mean, why don't I just add some more pictures? This is our patronal festival 2008, when the church was packed to the gunnels, probably to hear the sermon by the Right Reverend Dean of St. Paul's Cathedral, which was quite good actually.
The Entrance procession
Fr. Philip Warner (Celebrant)
Dean of St. Paul's
"Suscipiat Dominus sacrificium de manibus tuis, ad laudem et gloriam nominis sui, ad utilitatem quoque nostram, totiusque ecclesiae suae sanctae."
"Sursum Corda"
"Deo gratias"
The shrine of the Saint
I think that you will find that while clerics wearing vestments or copes wear the biretta when processing indoors those in surplice ( or rochet ) carry them and wear them only when seated/ Different rules apply out of door.

Fine pictures, and hurrah for a decent liturgy
