It actually was inspiring to see that even these days of central heating and creature comforts, that everybody continues to be recreation to tug on a hat, set themselves down on a straw bale and sing their socks off to the tune of “Ding dong merrily on excessive”. It almost blew the roof off! Properly finished everybody, what a terrific celebration of the that means of Christmas.
