Tuesday 24 December

The weather was just plain awful today. Coastal storms, inland strong gusts and lashing rains. Although the wind subsided by evening, this was followed by more heavy rain. Went to church for the 7.30pm Christmas Eve service, in which I participated as a chorister. I was one of four tenors; one of the others was a lady who was able to manage the tenor register with her alto voice. Church was packed, but a small child screamed loudly through the introductory prayers, giving rise to a mutter in the congregation. However, our pieces went very well indeed. No, I don't have any nice pics to show today.
