Sing choirs of angels

YC isn't sure if he sang like an angel. But what he lacked in quality he made up for in quantity. He accompanied on his guitar some carol singers around the wards at North Tyneside hospital tonight. In an age where knowledge of hymns tends to be restricted to "All things bright and beautiful", it's refreshing to learn that people still know their carols. Good King Wenceslas was a popular request as was Silent Night. YC was also armed with a fab Cajun version of Angels from the Realms of Glory (courtesy of John Pearce/Maddy Prior) which went down well. If you want to hear the Cajun version in all its glory, come along to Holy Saviours Church on Christmas morning and sing along.

And finally, how does Good King Wenceslas like his pizza? Deep pan crisp and even.

Ho ho ho (as Santa would say when he's gardening).
