Your carol service alarm call!

It’s the beginning of October as I write this, but in a bid to out-do Tesco I’m trying to get all Christmassy.

I know that many like to think far ahead so that they can be fully prepared for December. This article’s for them. It’s also an alarm call to people like me, who wake up in a cold sweat a week before the first carol service with no ideas, and musicians who have already gone on holiday, not returning till mid-January.
