Today I bumped into a couple of people from the Loughborough University choir – one popped into my office to drop off her computer for a Windows 11 upgrade and the other spotted me down at the allotment when I popped by to do some harvesting and watering after work. That prompted me to make a start on a Christmas song I’ve had in mind to offer but hadn’t yet got round to working on outside of my head – a rendering of The Boar’s Head Carol with a few extra twists and turns to add a bit of spice to the dish.

It isn’t quite finished yet but I should have something to send to the conductor sooner rather than later and certainly before the start of term.
