Thursday, 15 December
• 6.00pm Green railings before the turning for the Church/Bush (Pinklands/The Lodge)
• 6.20pm Telephone box
• 6.40pm No Man’s Land / Pump Garden
• 7.00pm Green on the Crescent
Carols will include:
• Hark, the herald angels
• O come all ye faithful
• Away in a manger
• Once In Royal David’s City
• Silent night
• Jingle bells
• We wish you a merry Christmas
• Ding dong merrily on high
Please take care:
• Wrap up warm
• Be visible
• Bring a torch (so you can be seen and also to read the lyrics!)
