Due to a series of events, it's December again. And for the fifth year, I'm going to do an advent calendar of carols. Sub-category: Ones I particularly like. Something old, something new, nothing cheeky, nothing blue. I'll link to them all in this thread and do a YouTube playlist as well.

It’s tomorrow - join us for everything from our first go at neumes (?) to Toby Young’s The Owl.
Because there’s no algorithmic feed, we’d be grateful if our 7 (count ‘em!) followers could retweet this. Got to start somewhere… we’re a welcoming community choir.
